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 La Pointe-Blanche.
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.

La Pointe-Blanche is a locality in Rivière-Bleue; Témiscouata, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. La Pointe-Blanche is located at 47.3417°N, 68.9675°W.
La Pointe-Blanche anchors the rugged, elevated terrain of the Montagne des Kennedy, standing as a quiet sentinel over the surrounding wilderness. It lies 33.3 km south-west of Dégelis, QC (from Dégelis, QC: bearing 227°T), and is situated 11.9 km south-south-east of Rivière-Bleue. The land here holds a particular austerity, where the light at dusk clings to the slopes, turning the rock and spruce into deep, bruised shades of violet. About 2 km away, the waters of Lac des Bogues offer a stillness that mirrors the heavy, grey skies, while the St. Francis River continues its steady, hidden course some 6 km distant. The air in La Pointe-Blanche feels thin and sharpened by the altitude, demanding a certain resilience from those who inhabit these high, uneven reaches. History in La Pointe-Blanche remains tied to the slow, methodical labor of the forest, where generations have carved a living from the timber and the challenging soil. The local economy persists in a quiet dialogue with the landscape, favoring the steady work of extraction and the modest yields of mountain agriculture over the rush of modern commerce. Life moves with a deliberate gravity, defined by the seasonal shift from the biting frost of deep winter to the brief, intense green of summer. Even now, the silence of the Montagne des Kennedy exerts a singular influence, ensuring that the character of La Pointe-Blanche stays rooted in the endurance of the woods and the uncomplicated, daily labor of the people who call this ridge home.
La Pointe-Blanche se dresse avec une austérité noble parmi les reliefs accidentés de la Montagne des Kennedy, là où le sol semble retenir le souvenir des premiers défrichements. Le regard, porté par une lumière oblique qui s'étire sur les pentes à l'heure où le soleil décline, embrasse un relief modelé par une rudesse ancienne, typique des terres du Témiscouata. À seulement deux kilomètres, le Lac des Bogues miroite comme une plaque d'argent sombre, tandis qu'à six kilomètres, la rivière St. Francis poursuit sa course silencieuse, apportant une fraîcheur qui imprègne les boisés environnants. La Pointe-Blanche conserve cette stature singulière des lieux de haute terre, où la vie humaine s'est ajustée, patiente, aux rigueurs d'un climat qui ne laisse place qu'à l'essentiel. Les bois de conifères, serrés contre les escarpements, semblent protéger le silence des vallons, offrant aux habitants un horizon protégé par la constance des crêtes. Ici, le rythme des journées suit la lenteur des saisons, loin de l'agitation, dans une harmonie presque minérale que seules les brises venues des hauteurs viennent troubler. La terre, nourrie par ce relief tourmenté, exige une persévérance qui forge le caractère de ceux qui habitent ces parages, faisant de cette contrée un monde à part, serein et immuable.
