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 Bougainville.
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.

Bougainville is a hamlet in Percé; Le Rocher-Percé, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Bougainville is located at 48.6581°N, 64.2664°W.
Bougainville stands as a quiet sentinel where the rugged cliffs meet the expansive reach of the St. Lawrence. It lies 15.5 km north-north-west of Percé, QC (from Percé, QC: bearing 345°T), and is situated 15.3 km south-south-east of Douglastown. The land here holds a sharp, salt-crusted clarity, defined by the imposing presence of Le Sugar Loaf rising against a sky that often turns the color of hammered pewter at dusk. While the Rivière Malbaie carves its path through the nearby terrain, the air in Bougainville remains heavy with the scent of brine and cold stone, a stark reminder of the Atlantic currents that dictate the seasonal pulse of the coast. Life in Bougainville draws its persistence from the maritime traditions that have long anchored the surrounding Percé landscape. The economy remains bound to the tides and the seasonal shifts of the sea, echoing the resilience of those who settled this jagged edge of the continent. Residents look toward the distant horizon where Parc national de l'Île-Bonaventure-et-du-Rocher-Percé guards the coast, a reminder of the geological endurance that defines the region. In Bougainville, the hours are measured not by the clock, but by the slow, inevitable retreat of the water and the way the light lingers against the rock faces before the evening chill settles in.
Bougainville s'étire le long des rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le regard se perd dans l'immensité saline qui façonne depuis toujours le caractère des hommes. À proximité du Sugar Loaf, le relief impose sa stature minérale, dominant les activités quotidiennes d'une population habituée à la rudesse des vents marins. La Rivière Malbaie serpente à cinq kilomètres de là, apportant une fraîcheur discrète qui s'insinue dans les terres, tandis que le Parc national de l'Île-Bonaventure-et-du-Rocher-Percé se dresse à vingt kilomètres, rappelant la puissance brute du littoral québécois. Bougainville vit au rythme des marées, dans une économie tournée vers l'horizon, où chaque maison semble guetter les arrivées de la mer. Les traditions locales se transmettent avec la patience des pêcheurs, dans une langue qui porte encore les échos des premiers établissements. Sous la lumière dorée du crépuscule, le paysage se transforme, révélant la texture rocailleuse du sol et la silhouette fière des falaises. La vie ici ne cherche pas le tumulte, préférant la constance des éléments qui, loin des agitations du monde, maintiennent une identité singulière, forgée par cette rencontre entre le roc et les flots agités.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any Canadian town, county or landmark by name; offers the Canada Base Map with Toporama contours and shaded relief as base layers; overlays a labelled UTM grid so the map can be read like a printed NTS sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
