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 Place-des-Pins.
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.

Place-des-Pins is a residential area in Saint-Cyrille-de-Lessard; L'Islet, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Place-des-Pins is located at 46.9983°N, 70.2336°W.
Place-des-Pins rests within the quiet expanse of the La Couronne du Suroît, where the land rises in firm, forested folds above the Bras de l'Est. It lies 24.6 km east of Montmagny, QC (from Montmagny, QC: bearing 85°T), and is situated 5.2 km south-east of Saint-Cyrille-de-L'Islet. The air here holds a crisp, resinous clarity that seems to sharpen the edges of the horizon, particularly as the low light of evening catches the needles of the evergreens. Nearby, the stillness of Lac Vaseux mirrors the sky four kilometers to the west, while the rugged terrain of Les Portes de l'Enfer defines the wilder character of the landscape six kilometers away. In this high, interior reach of the province, the terrain demands a certain persistence, with the soil and stone grounding the life that persists along the winding watercourses. The historical development of Place-des-Pins reflects the steady, deliberate labor of those who cleared the timber to carve out a living in the Saint-Cyrille-de-Lessard region. Small-scale forestry and traditional agriculture form the bedrock of the local economy, maintaining a connection to the land that has persisted through generations of seasonal change. Residents go about their daily tasks with a focus on the immediate needs of the homestead and the woodlot, finding value in the solitary character of the heights. Even now, the cultural life of Place-des-Pins remains anchored in the traditions of the L'Islet region, where the turning of the seasons dictates the pace of work and the quiet gatherings that sustain the spirit of the people.
Place-des-Pins s’étire avec une patience minérale sur les terres hautes de la Couronne du Suroît, là où le regard s'attarde sur l'immobilité des pins qui ont donné leur nom à ce territoire. À l'heure où le crépuscule dépose une teinte d'ardoise sur le Bras de l'Est, le vent qui remonte le cours d'eau semble porter en lui le silence des terres intérieures. Le paysage, marqué par un relief qui hésite entre la plaine et le début du plateau, impose une lenteur nécessaire aux travaux des champs et à la vie des habitants. À quatre kilomètres de là, le Lac Vaseux retient les dernières lueurs du ciel, tandis que les escarpements connus sous le nom des Portes de l'Enfer, situés à six kilomètres, dessinent une ligne sombre et accidentée à l'horizon. Place-des-Pins cultive cette rigueur héritée d'un labeur agricole obstiné, une manière d'exister qui se mesure à la patience des saisons et à la rudesse du climat. Les gestes quotidiens, ici, ne cherchent pas l'éclat, mais une continuité discrète, presque invisible, semblable à la sève qui circule sous l'écorce des conifères. La terre, nourrie par le passage des siècles, conserve une mémoire sourde, celle des premières défrichements qui ont permis à ce coin de pays de se maintenir debout face aux intempéries.
