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-des-Ours.
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-des-Ours is a locality in Sainte-Lucie-de-Beauregard; Montmagny, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Plage-des-Ours is located at 46.7578°N, 70.0733°W.
Plage-des-Ours rests within the quiet expanse of the Bonnet à Wellie, where the land holds the cool, damp breath of the La Petite Nord-Ouest. It lies 8.8 km east-north-east of Secteur des Sentiers-Pédestres-de-Saint-Fabien, QC (from Secteur des Sentiers-Pédestres-de-Saint-Fabien, QC: bearing 62°T), and is situated 12.7 km north-north-east of Panet. The water of the La Petite Nord-Ouest moves with a deliberate, glass-like clarity, reflecting the heavy sky that settles over the Bonnet à Wellie each evening. Just two kilometers away, the stillness of Lac à Philippe offers a mirror to the surrounding woods, while the distant Réserve écologique internationale Thomas-Sterry-Hunt guards a more secluded, untamed horizon. In the autumn, the light turns a bruised, metallic gold, catching the edges of the reeds and casting long, sharp shadows that seem to anchor Plage-des-Ours to the earth. The history of Plage-des-Ours lingers in the weathered wood of old outbuildings and the persistent, industrious spirit of those who work the timber and the soil. Life here follows the seasonal turning of the woods, where the economy remains tied to the modest yields of the forest and the careful stewardship of the land. Traditions are kept in the small, private gestures of the harvest and the maintenance of the trails that crisscross the Bonnet à Wellie. Even as the modern world pulls at the edges of the region, the character of the people stays rooted in a deep, observant patience, watching the seasons pass over the La Petite Nord-Ouest with a quiet, steady gaze.
Plage-des-Ours déploie sa singulière étendue sur les rives de La Petite Nord-Ouest, là où le Bonnet à Wellie referme ses contours boisés sur une terre marquée par le labeur des défricheurs. La lumière déclinante y accroche des reflets cuivrés aux eaux calmes, tandis que le vent apporte une fraîcheur humide, rappelant la proximité du Lac à Philippe, distant de quelques lieues seulement. Dans cet espace où le silence de la forêt domine les activités humaines, les habitants perpétuent une existence liée aux cycles du sol et à l'exploitation forestière qui façonna le visage de ces terres. La mémoire des anciens imprègne encore les sentiers menant vers la Réserve écologique internationale Thomas-Sterry-Hunt, zone protégée qui veille sur la quiétude sauvage du secteur. Plage-des-Ours observe ainsi le crépuscule s'étirer sur les berges, offrant aux rares promeneurs la vision d'un monde où la nature conserve ses droits souverains. Ici, la rudesse du relief et la persistance des traditions locales composent une solitude apaisante, loin des bruits du monde moderne, préservant une authenticité que seule la rigueur des hivers québécois sait magnifier dans une immobilité absolue.
