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-des-Rosiers-Est.
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-des-Rosiers-Est is a hamlet in Gaspé; La Côte-de-Gaspé, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Cap-des-Rosiers-Est is located at 48.8469°N, 64.2106°W.
Cap-des-Rosiers-Est rests where the hard edge of the continent meets the salt-heavy breath of the sea, anchored firmly within the protected reaches of Forillon National Park of Canada. It lies 19.6 km east of Gaspé, QC (from Gaspé, QC: bearing 83°T), and is situated 14.8 km east-north-east of Douglastown. The terrain climbs sharply toward the heights of Le Sugar Loaf, a silent sentinel watching over the coastal sweep where the light at dusk turns the water into a sheet of hammered grey slate. The Rivière de l'Anse au Griffon carves its way through the landscape some twelve kilometers distant, feeding the stillness that clings to the cliffs and the sparse, resilient vegetation. History in Cap-des-Rosiers-Est persists in the weathered wood of older dwellings and the enduring patterns of a life oriented toward the horizon. The local economy has long looked to the sea for sustenance, maintaining a connection to the tides that shaped the earliest settlements. Though the pace of days follows the turning of the seasons rather than the ticking of a clock, the residents carry the weight of their maritime lineage in their quiet resolve. This particular stretch of Gaspé holds a solitude that feels earned, where the air tastes of brine and the land demands a certain stubborn grace from those who call it home.
Cap-des-Rosiers-Est s'étire le long d'une bordure terrestre où la terre ferme semble hésiter avant de céder sa place à l'immensité saline. À l'intérieur du Forillon National Park of Canada, le relief se cabre avec une austérité minérale, s'élevant vers les hauteurs du Sugar Loaf qui domine la ligne d'horizon par sa masse imposante et silencieuse. La lumière du crépuscule glisse sur les parois escarpées, révélant une texture de roches anciennes qui retiennent encore la chaleur d'une journée trop courte. À une douzaine de kilomètres, la Rivière de l'Anse au Griffon poursuit son cours discret, murmurant une cadence qui accompagne la vie discrète des habitants. Ici, le travail des hommes a longtemps épousé les caprices de la mer, façonnant une existence tournée vers les horizons changeants du golfe. Les maisons, modestes et droites, se tiennent face aux vents dominants, affirmant leur présence par une simplicité robuste qui défie les intempéries. L'histoire de Cap-des-Rosiers-Est se lit dans le contraste entre la rudesse des falaises et la douceur des vallons abrités, offrant à ceux qui y séjournent une perspective dépouillée de tout artifice, où chaque souffle d'air marin rappelle la rigueur et la beauté du littoral gaspésien.
