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 Pont-Banc.
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 Pont-Banc is a locality in Stoneham-et-Tewkesbury; La Jacques-Cartier, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Le Pont-Banc is located at 47.2280°N, 71.4091°W.
Le Pont-Banc stands as a quiet sentinel where the land begins to rise and tighten around the currents of the Rivière Jacques-Cartier. It lies 42.1 km north-west of Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré, QC (from Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré, QC: bearing 304°T), and is situated 28.6 km north of Lac-Delage. The terrain here is defined by the steady, insistent movement of the water, which carves a path through the dense, shadowed valleys near the Le Deltaplane. At dusk, the light slants low against the tree line, turning the river into a ribbon of dark, polished slate that mirrors the cold intensity of the northern woods. While Lac Saurtney rests in the stillness of the higher ground just three kilometers away, the air at Le Pont-Banc stays perpetually crisp, carrying the scent of damp stone and hemlock from the surrounding ridges. Life in Stoneham-et-Tewkesbury draws much of its character from the proximity of Parc national de la Jacques-Cartier, which lies twelve kilometers to the north and dictates the seasonal pulse of the region. The economy remains bound to the rhythms of the forest and the river, as the local population navigates a balance between the demands of the wilderness and the necessities of modern residency. Generations have adapted to the steep geography, where the morning fog often clings to the banks of the Rivière Jacques-Cartier long after the sun has cleared the peaks. It is a rugged, solitary environment where the weight of the landscape feels present in every task, grounding the residents in a cycle of work and observation that changes with the shifting color of the leaves.
Le Pont-Banc déploie sa silhouette discrète sur les rives de la Rivière Jacques-Cartier, là où le cours d'eau ralentit pour épouser les courbures du terrain. À proximité du Deltaplane, l'air s'alourdit d'une fraîcheur propre aux vallées encaissées, imprégnant les maisons d'une quiétude héritée des anciens défricheurs qui ont jadis ouvert ces terres sauvages. Le regard, en s'élevant vers l'horizon, devine la présence du Parc national de la Jacques-Cartier qui domine le paysage à une douzaine de kilomètres, imposant sa stature sauvage sur la ligne du ciel. Non loin, les eaux calmes du Lac Saurtney gardent le secret des bois environnants, séparées de quelques lieues seulement par une forêt dense et silencieuse. Le Pont-Banc vit au rythme des changements de lumière, lorsque le crépuscule glisse sur la Rivière Jacques-Cartier, transformant la surface sombre en un miroir d'acier. Les habitants cultivent une existence simple, marquée par la proximité des reliefs escarpés et le souffle constant des vents qui descendent des plateaux. Ici, la terre porte encore le souvenir des activités forestières d'autrefois, et le sol, ferme sous le pas, maintient une fidélité aux traditions laborieuses de Stoneham-et-Tewkesbury, loin de l'agitation des grands centres.

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.
