Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture to zoom in and out.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen for a larger view. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key on your keyboard, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

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 Cap-Blanc.
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.

Cap-Blanc is a neighbourhood in Québec; Capitale-Nationale, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Cap-Blanc is located at 46.8026°N, 71.2090°W.
Cap-Blanc clings to the steep slopes of the Coteau Sainte-Geneviève, looking out over the expansive, tidal reach of the St. Lawrence. It lies 1.2 km south of Québec, QC (from Québec, QC: bearing 184°T), and is situated 5.5 km north-north-east of Lévis. The land here drops sharply toward the water, where the air often carries a sharp, salt-tinged dampness that clings to the stone foundations of the houses. Just a few kilometers away, the quiet stillness of Lac Bargoné offers a stark contrast to the persistent, rhythmic pulse of the currents below, while the distant, thunderous presence of Chutes de la Chaudière reminds the observer of the power held by the region’s waterways. As the sun dips behind the escarpment, the light turns a bruised violet, catching the slate roofs and turning the white-painted wood of the dwellings into glowing embers against the darkening heights. The history of Cap-Blanc remains anchored to the proximity of the Rivière Saint-Charles and the industrious labor of those who once sought their living from the river and the docks. Generations of families built their lives against the incline, creating a vertical neighborhood that mirrors the ruggedness of the shoreline itself. The economy here has shifted from the heavy maritime commerce of the past toward a quiet, residential existence, yet the steep staircases and narrow paths between homes preserve the memory of a time when the foot traffic of workers defined the daily commute. Life in Cap-Blanc moves with the tides, a persistent, slow-turning motion that keeps the residents mindful of the water’s edge and the enduring influence of the landscape that cradles them.
Cap-Blanc se dresse avec une dignité austère au pied du Coteau Sainte-Geneviève, là où les falaises protègent les humbles demeures des vents dominants du Saint-Laurent. Ce quartier, autrefois refuge des marins et des travailleurs dévoués à l’industrie portuaire, conserve une âme forgée par la proximité immédiate de l’eau et l’ascension abrupte vers les hauteurs de Québec. À marée haute, le fleuve lèche les fondations de Cap-Blanc, rappelant aux résidents que leur existence demeure intrinsèquement liée aux caprices de ce courant puissant. Non loin, les eaux de la Rivière Saint-Charles serpentent vers leur embouchure, dessinant une frontière naturelle entre les mémoires industrielles et la ville qui s’étend au-dessus du promontoire. La lumière du crépuscule glisse sur les toits en pente, révélant la texture minérale des parois rocheuses qui isolent ce secteur du tumulte urbain. Tandis que les Chutes de la Chaudière grondent à une distance respectueuse et que le Lac Bargoné repose dans un silence lointain, Cap-Blanc cultive son identité singulière, faite de labeur ancien et d’une résilience que seul le voisinage des grandes marées peut forger. Les sentiers qui grimpent vers le sommet du coteau racontent encore les pas des familles qui, par les escaliers de bois, reliaient leur quotidien au reste du monde.

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. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
