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 Le Bas-du-Cournoyer.
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.

Le Bas-du-Cournoyer is a locality in Bécancour; Bécancour, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Le Bas-du-Cournoyer is located at 46.3794°N, 72.4000°W.
Le Bas-du-Cournoyer unfolds along the low, resilient banks of the St. Lawrence, where the land yields to the expansive breath of the river near the Plateau Laval. It lies 11.7 km east-north-east of Trois-Rivières, QC (from Trois-Rivières, QC: bearing 70°T), and is situated 4.4 km north-east of Bécancour. The Rivière Bécancour cuts through the terrain with a persistent, fluid grace, its dark waters reflecting the shifting clouds that gather over the horizon. During the quiet transition of dusk, the air carries a crisp, mineral sharpness, and the light settles against the fields in long, amber streaks that seem to hold the day in suspension. Life here moves in accordance with the water, marked by the proximity of the distant Lac Montplaisir, which rests seven kilometers away, and the more secluded, rushing presence of Chutes Thibodeau located thirteen kilometers from the center of the landscape. The history of Le Bas-du-Cournoyer remains grounded in the practical output of the Bécancour region, where industry and agriculture have long negotiated their place beside the river. Local families have maintained a steady connection to the soil and the current, fostering an economy that values the utility of the land while respecting the natural boundaries of the shoreline. The pace is measured by the seasonal movement of the St. Lawrence, which dictates the turning of the earth and the cycle of the local harvest. Within this setting, the heritage of the locality manifests in the sturdy architecture and the quiet, deliberate habits of those who dwell near the confluence of these waters, finding beauty in the stark, honest clarity of the horizon.
Le Bas-du-Cournoyer s’étire avec une patience tranquille le long des rives du Saint-Laurent, là où l’eau large et sombre semble retenir son souffle avant de poursuivre sa course vers l’est. À proximité du Plateau Laval, la terre se déploie en plaines fertiles, marquées par le passage persistant de la Rivière Bécancour qui alimente les sols et façonne le relief de ses méandres. Dans cet espace où la lumière du soir se dépose avec une douceur particulière, le paysage garde en mémoire le labeur des générations ayant cultivé ces terres riveraines, héritières d’une longue tradition agricole. À une distance de sept kilomètres, le Lac Montplaisir repose dans un silence apaisant, tandis qu’à treize kilomètres, le fracas lointain des Chutes Thibodeau rappelle la force brute des courants qui sillonnent la région. Le Bas-du-Cournoyer maintient un rythme de vie fidèle à ses racines, où le vent du fleuve apporte une fraîcheur constante et un sentiment de stabilité. Chaque chemin qui borde les champs témoigne de la relation étroite entre les habitants et ce terrain généreux, offrant une perspective imprenable sur un horizon dégagé qui semble ne jamais vouloir cesser de s’étendre sous le ciel immense du Québec.
