BushMap

Crown and public land · Ontario · Québec

Coming soon

BushMap is moving to your phone.

It’s a map for camping, fishing and hunting on Crown land and public land in Ontario and Québec, and it’s being built as a phone app.

For Android and iPhone. There’s no date yet, and we won’t guess at one.

The BushMap website has closed. The map lives on in the phone app, which isn’t out yet.

Questions? hello@bushmap.ca

Distances from a real camp-spot card in the app. The shapes are drawn for this page.

Legend

What the map tells you

  • Whose ground it is

    Crown, park, reserve or private, coloured on the map so you know whose rules you’re under before you go.

    • Private
    • Crown
    • Park
    • Other public
    • Reserve
    • Water

  • Camp, Hunt, Fish

    Three modes. Pick what you’re out for and the map reads the ground for that.

  • The centre button

    Rates the water or ground on screen, then lists what’s best and what’s closest.

  • Species

    Pick the fish or game you’re after.

  • Seasons and rules

    For the area you’re looking at: the fishing zone or hunting unit, fire bans, limits.

  • Lake reads

    Depth, structure and stocking, so you know the water before you put in.

  • Drive time

    How long it takes to get there from where you are.

  • Day and night maps

    A day map and a night map, so it reads at noon and at five in the morning in the truck.
