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 Chaudière-Bassin.
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.

Chaudière-Bassin is a residential area in Lévis; Chaudière-Appalaches, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Chaudière-Bassin is located at 46.7389°N, 71.2683°W.
Chaudière-Bassin rests where the Rivière Chaudière yields its momentum to the expansive St. Lawrence, cradled within the Coteau Chevreuil. It lies 3.0 km south-west of Lévis, QC (from Lévis, QC: bearing 225°T), and is situated 9.5 km south-south-west of Québec. The light here catches the silt-heavy currents of the river at dusk, turning the water into a bruised, metallic silver that mirrors the grey sky. Only three kilometers away, the Chutes de la Chaudière collapse in a thunderous, perennial roar, a stark contrast to the quietude found near Lac aux Breakey some eight kilometers distant. The terrain holds a persistent moisture, and the air carries a chill that lingers long after the sun has retreated behind the rising slopes of the Coteau Chevreuil, grounding the landscape in a solemn, northern gravity. Settlement in Chaudière-Bassin grew from the necessity of harnessing the power and passage offered by the river, shaping an economy long defined by the transit of timber and the yields of the surrounding soil. The industry of the past remains visible in the sturdy, utilitarian architecture that lines the banks, where the rhythm of daily life follows the seasonal shifts of the Rivière Chaudière. Residents navigate the transition between the industrial legacy of the region and a modern, quieter existence, maintaining a character forged by the proximity to such formidable natural forces. Even now, the sound of the water remains the constant backdrop to the work and rest of those who call Chaudière-Bassin home, a persistent reminder of the river’s long influence on the land.
Chaudière-Bassin s'étire avec une tranquille obstination sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le relief du Coteau Chevreuil impose une courbure douce au paysage lévisien. Les eaux de la Rivière Chaudière, vigoureuses et chargées de souvenirs industriels, tracent ici un sillon impérieux vers le grand fleuve, façonnant le caractère de ces terres qui ont vu s'épanouir une vie laborieuse et patiente. À quelques lieues de distance, les Chutes de la Chaudière déploient leur fracas permanent, une force tellurique qui semble rythmer le souffle même de la contrée, tandis que plus loin, le Lac aux Breakey repose dans une quiétude ombragée. La lumière du crépuscule glisse sur les pentes, révélant la texture minérale et végétale d'un sol profondément lié aux cycles de l'eau. En observant Chaudière-Bassin, le visiteur perçoit cette alliance singulière entre la rigueur du climat québécois et la constance des hommes qui, par leur travail quotidien, ont su apprivoiser ces berges escarpées. L’air y possède une limpidité particulière, chargée d'une humidité saline et boisée, rappelant sans cesse la proximité des courants fluviaux qui ont dicté, depuis les premiers établissements, la destinée singulière de ce secteur.
