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-Fournier.
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-Fournier is a resort in Tingwick; Arthabaska, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Plage-Fournier is located at 45.8592°N, 71.9536°W.
Plage-Fournier sits nestled within the quiet elevation of the Colline Pine, where the land holds the cool, persistent light of the afternoon with a singular, lingering grace. It lies 9.2 km north of Val-des-Sources, QC (from Val-des-Sources, QC: bearing 353°T), and is situated 9.2 km east of Kingsey Falls. The terrain rises in firm, forested swells that catch the wind coming off the distant reaches of the Rivière Nicolet Sud-Ouest, located seven kilometers away. Near the periphery of the woods, the air often carries the damp, earthy scent of moss and stone, a sensory reminder of the proximity of Lac Fréchette, which rests six kilometers from the slope. The character of the land remains defined by these heights, where the trees stand against the sky in a dense, unbroken line, and the silence of the high ground is punctuated only by the occasional shift of shadows as the sun retreats behind the ridge. The history of Plage-Fournier is rooted in the steady, industrious spirit of Tingwick, where generations have worked the soil and managed the timber that defines the local economy. While the Chutes Fontainebleau remains a notable landmark eighteen kilometers away, the life of the people here focuses on the immediate, practical concerns of agriculture and the maintenance of the homesteads that dot the hillsides. Daily tasks follow the requirements of the seasons, demanding a resilience that is as quiet as the frost on the grass in late autumn. The cultural identity of the locality persists through these traditional labors, maintaining a connection to the land that is neither showy nor hurried, but instead reflects a deep, enduring familiarity with the limits and the gifts of the Colline Pine.
Plage-Fournier se déploie avec une discrétion minérale au sein de la Colline Pine, là où le sol semble retenir une part du silence ancien des terres d'Arthabaska. Dans cette lumière oblique du soir qui glisse sur les ondulations du terrain, le relief impose une rigueur tranquille, façonnée par une agriculture patiente et les vents qui traversent les hauteurs. À quelques lieues de là, la Rivière Nicolet Sud-Ouest trace son sillon discret, tandis que le Lac Fréchette demeure un miroir immobile sous les frondaisons, complétant une géographie où chaque inclinaison de terre raconte l'effort des premiers défricheurs. Le murmure lointain des Chutes Fontainebleau parvient parfois jusqu'aux oreilles attentives, rappelant que l'eau, malgré sa distance, structure la mémoire de ces lieux. Plage-Fournier observe ainsi le passage des jours, portée par une habitude du travail et une fidélité aux gestes transmis par les aînés. Ici, la terre ne cherche pas à se donner en spectacle, elle s'offre dans la texture rugueuse des champs et la clarté d'un air vif qui semble suspendre le mouvement du monde. Entre les ombres portées par les arbres et la fermeté du relief, l'existence se déploie sans artifice, fidèle à la pesanteur heureuse d'un terroir qui exige autant qu'il nourrit.
