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 Carleton-Ouest.
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.

Carleton-Ouest is a hamlet in Carleton-sur-Mer; Avignon, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Carleton-Ouest is located at 48.1147°N, 66.1781°W.
Carleton-Ouest rests where the firm earth meets the vast, salt-scented expanse of the St. Lawrence. It lies 15.6 km east-north-east of Baie-des-Hérons, QC (from Baie-des-Hérons, QC: bearing 70°T), and is situated 15.6 km east-north-east of Heron Bay. The landscape here is defined by the Buttereau des Pins Rouges, where the terrain rises to catch the slanted, amber light of late afternoon, casting long shadows across the fields. Nearby, the Rivière Stewart carves a quiet path toward the shore, its currents mirroring the grey and silver hues of the coastal sky. The air in Carleton-Ouest holds a crisp, persistent clarity, sharpened by the proximity of the tides and the cool, resinous breath of the surrounding pines. The history of Carleton-Ouest lingers in the sturdy architecture of the houses that stand resilient against the maritime winds. While the Barachois de Carleton lies five kilometers away, the local economy remains anchored to the rhythms of the coast, reflecting a heritage of patience and practical labor. Visitors often venture out toward the Chutes de Brébeuf, situated nineteen kilometers inland, or explore the geological wonders found fourteen kilometers away at Parc national de Miguasha. Life in Carleton-Ouest moves with the tide, a steady existence where the horizon is a constant companion and the hum of the sea provides a persistent, underlying pulse to the daily chores of the residents.
Carleton-Ouest s’étire avec une patience infinie le long des rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le Buttereau des Pins Rouges semble retenir le souffle du large pour mieux protéger les terres basses. Le mouvement des marées rythme le quotidien des habitants qui ont appris à lire les humeurs de l’eau, tandis que la Rivière Stewart trace un sillon paisible à travers le relief, offrant ses eaux calmes aux reflets changeants du crépuscule. À quelques kilomètres, le Barachois de Carleton rappelle la fragilité de cette lisière entre la terre ferme et l’immensité salée, un équilibre que les résidents connaissent par cœur. Le passé ici ne se raconte pas, il se respire dans l’air iodé qui remonte vers les terres, effleurant les espaces sauvages du Parc national de Miguasha et le murmure lointain des Chutes de Brébeuf. Carleton-Ouest conserve une identité humble, façonnée par les vents dominants et une économie tournée vers les ressources qu’offre la côte. Entre le bleu profond du fleuve et le vert sombre des boisés, le paysage impose une sobriété qui force le respect, invitant à une contemplation silencieuse face à l’horizon qui s’élargit chaque soir davantage sous une lumière dorée, presque irréelle, qui semble suspendre le temps.
