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 Plage-Desranleau.
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.

Plage-Desranleau is a resort in Clarenceville; Le Haut-Richelieu, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Plage-Desranleau is located at 45.0161°N, 73.2072°W.
Plage-Desranleau rests along the quiet, expansive edge of Lake Champlain, where the land yields to the water with a low, deliberate grace. It lies 32.4 km south of Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, QC (from Saint-Jean-sur-Richelieu, QC: bearing 174°T), and is situated 13.5 km south of Henryville. The light at dusk here possesses a particular clarity, catching the reeds and turning the surface of the lake into a sheet of hammered silver that holds the color of the sky long after the sun has dipped below the horizon. Near the Colline School-House, the earth feels solid and ancient, shaped by long winters and the persistent, quiet work of the seasons. While the Rivière aux Brochets flows through the wider region, its presence is felt here as a distant, necessary companion to the fields that define the local character. Life in Plage-Desranleau moves with the measured pace of a place connected to the soil, where the heritage of Clarenceville and Le Haut-Richelieu lingers in the architecture of the older structures and the persistence of the small-scale agricultural traditions that have long supported the residents. The community maintains a steady, observant existence, marked by the changing moods of the lake and the enduring silhouette of the schoolhouse against the wide, open air.
Plage-Desranleau s’étire avec une langueur paisible le long des rives du lac Champlain, là où la terre fertile de Clarenceville rencontre l’horizon indécis des eaux. La lumière décline sur ce rivage en nuances cuivrées, révélant la silhouette discrète de la Colline School-House qui veille, immobile, sur le labeur ancien des terres agricoles environnantes. À une dizaine de kilomètres, la Rivière aux Brochets poursuit sa course discrète, marquant le rythme lent d'un paysage façonné par le travail des familles pionnières et la persistance des traditions rurales. L'air, chargé d'une humidité légère et changeante, semble suspendre le mouvement des arbres, tandis que le silence, seulement troublé par le clapotis contre le rivage, souligne l'isolement bienveillant de Plage-Desranleau. Les demeures aux toits inclinés, humbles sentinelles tournées vers le grand large intérieur, rappellent les époques où l'économie locale reposait sur le respect strict des cycles du sol et les richesses tirées de ces vastes étendues. Ici, l’espace ne se mesure pas en distances, mais en la profondeur d’un crépuscule qui s'attarde sur les champs, unifiant la terre et le ciel dans une clarté presque liquide qui transforme chaque élément du décor en un souvenir durable pour quiconque arpente ces berges.

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.
