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 Lac-Bonnécal.
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.

Lac-Bonnécal is a residential area in Notre-Dame-du-Laus; Antoine-Labelle, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Lac-Bonnécal is located at 46.1075°N, 75.6244°W.
Lac-Bonnécal rests within the rugged, forested expanse of Notre-Dame-du-Laus, holding the quiet stillness of the Canadian Shield. It lies 40.5 km south-east of Maniwaki, QC (from Maniwaki, QC: bearing 137°T), and is situated 2.2 km north of Notre-Dame-du-Laus. The water of Lac-Bonnécal catches the low, pale light of late afternoon, mirroring the dense timber that crowds its edges and hides the movement of local wildlife. Nearby, the flow of the Rivière du Lièvre exerts a persistent influence on the terrain, shaping the low-lying ground and defining the moisture in the air. Close by, the feature known as La Petite Loge marks the landscape, providing a reference point for those who navigate these dense, rocky woods. The atmosphere here feels heavy with the scent of pine needles and damp earth, a reminder of the slow, deliberate growth that characterizes this northern forest. The history of Lac-Bonnécal aligns with the broader development of Antoine-Labelle, where the extraction of resources and the seasonal rhythms of the forest once dictated the pulse of daily life. While the local economy has transitioned away from the intensive logging operations of the past, the connection to the land remains a defining feature for those who reside near the Rivière du Lièvre. The work of the day often concludes with the sound of wind moving through the canopy, a singular noise that rises and falls with the changing weather. Traditions in this part of Quebec are rooted in a deep familiarity with the immediate surroundings, where the proximity of Lac-Bonnécal and the sheltering presence of the surrounding hills foster a quiet, self-sufficient life.
Lac-Bonnécal se déploie dans une quiétude minérale, là où la terre semble retenir son souffle sous la lumière oblique de la fin du jour. À proximité immédiate de La Petite Loge, le terrain offre ses ondulations discrètes aux brumes qui s'élèvent des rives de la Rivière du Lièvre. Cette étendue d'eau imprime une cadence lente au paysage, dictant la vie des hommes qui, depuis des générations, ont appris à lire la patience dans le courant et la rudesse dans le sol. Lac-Bonnécal observe le passage des heures, tandis que l'air se rafraîchit, chargé de l'odeur des terres humides et des écorces sombres. Les bâtisseurs d'autrefois, habitués à la rigueur du climat, ont su composer avec les caprices de la nature, installant leurs demeures comme des sentinelles face à l'immensité des bois environnants. Le silence qui enveloppe les lieux n'est rompu que par le murmure constant de la Rivière du Lièvre, véritable veine nourricière dont la présence façonne l'identité profonde de Lac-Bonnécal. Ici, la rudesse du relief et la sérénité des eaux se rencontrent pour offrir un cadre où le temps s'étire avec une lenteur souveraine, loin des agitations du monde, dans une harmonie simple et austère.
