TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the Canada Base Map from Natural Resources Canada with Toporama contours layered over it — the CanVec topographic data behind the printed NTS sheets, and the mapping used for hiking, hunting, canoe routes and back-country travel. Relief shows shaded relief and hypsometric tints. The search box finds any Canadian town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Bois-Brûlé.
Reading the map like a paper NTS sheet. Click Grid to overlay the UTM grid, labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass — which matters in Canada, where declination runs from about 20 degrees west in Newfoundland to 20 degrees east in the Yukon.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — the grid reference being what Canadian search and rescue work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.
Map search is available for a limited number of queries per session to manage costs. Be specific — search precisely for best results.

Bois-Brûlé is a hamlet in Gaspé; La Côte-de-Gaspé, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Bois-Brûlé is located at 48.7192°N, 64.2928°W.
Bois-Brûlé rests where the rugged edge of the continent meets the cold, deep currents of the St. Lawrence. It lies 17.8 km south-east of Gaspé, QC (from Gaspé, QC: bearing 131°T), and is situated 8.8 km south-east of Douglastown. The salt-heavy air carries a sharp clarity, illuminating the slopes of Le Sugar Loaf as they rise abruptly above the shoreline. Within this rugged topography, the Rivière de l'Anse à Brillant carves a narrow path toward the sea, its waters reflecting the shifting greys and blues of the sky. Nearby, the presence of Le Gros Lac adds a stillness to the hinterland, while the vast, windswept reaches of Forillon National Park of Canada stand as a reminder of the wilder coast that defines the region. At dusk, the light catches the crests of the waves in a way that makes the water appear like hammered silver, grounding the senses in the cold, bracing reality of the Gaspé peninsula. Life in Bois-Brûlé follows the dictates of the tides and the seasonal migrations that have long sustained those living along these rocky shores. The local economy persists through a connection to the sea and the land, maintaining a quiet independence that reflects the isolation of the coastline. Generations have observed the turning of the seasons, from the breaking of the winter ice to the return of the fishing vessels, finding stability in the persistent, rhythmic pulse of the maritime climate. Even as the modern world encroaches, the horizon remains dominated by the ancient geometry of the cliffs, preserving a solitude that demands respect from all who dwell in the shadow of the heights.
Bois-Brûlé s’étire le long des rives du Saint-Laurent, là où l’air salin s’alourdit de la mémoire des marées et du souffle constant venant du large. Sous le regard immuable du Sugar Loaf, le relief s’incline doucement vers la Rivière de l’Anse à Brillant, dont le cours sinueux accompagne le labeur quotidien des habitants habitués à la rudesse des éléments. À quinze kilomètres de là, le Gros Lac demeure une présence silencieuse dans les terres, tandis que le parc national Forillon du Canada protège, à une vingtaine de kilomètres, les falaises abruptes qui bornent l’horizon gaspésien. La lumière du crépuscule glisse sur les structures en bois et les champs autrefois défrichés, révélant la texture minérale d’un sol qui a vu passer des générations de pêcheurs et de cultivateurs. Dans le silence qui précède la nuit, Bois-Brûlé semble suspendu entre la profondeur des eaux et la fermeté du roc, conservant dans ses replis une identité forgée par une proximité singulière avec une nature indomptée. Le vent, en remontant l’estuaire, balaye les aspérités du paysage, rappelant à chaque instant que l’existence ici se mesure à la persistance du granit et au mouvement incessant du grand fleuve qui définit la frontière de ce monde.
