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 Chute-des-Georges.
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.

Chute-des-Georges is a locality in Saint-David-de-Falardeau; Le Fjord-du-Saguenay, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Chute-des-Georges is located at 48.7172°N, 71.1403°W.
Chute-des-Georges anchors itself amidst the rugged, unyielding terrain of Le Grand Coteau, where the Rivière Shipshaw carves a persistent path through the granite bones of the Canadian Shield. It lies 32.6 km north of Saguenay, QC (from Saguenay, QC: bearing 350°T), and is situated 11.3 km north of Saint-David-de-Falardeau. The water here moves with a deliberate, muscular intensity, its surface churning white against dark stone before finding a quieter cadence near the stillness of Lac Rond. At dusk, the light slants low against the spruce needles, turning the air a bruised, metallic blue that seems to hold the cold of the coming night long before the sun has fully vanished. To the north, the sprawling reach of Parc national des Monts-Valin defines the horizon, a reminder of the vast, forested wilderness that presses against the edges of human settlement. The history of Chute-des-Georges remains tied to the demanding labor of the woods and the relentless flow of the Rivière Shipshaw, which once served as a primary artery for the timber trade. While the reach of industry has evolved, the daily pulse of life in Saint-David-de-Falardeau continues to be shaped by the seasonal demands of the landscape and the proximity to such wild, expansive geography. Residents often look toward the distant presence of Les Trois Chutes as a marker of the region’s untamed character, acknowledging that the land here requires a particular kind of vigilance and respect. Whether through the quiet maintenance of local trails or the careful stewardship of the riverbanks, the people find a steady equilibrium, existing in a space where the silence of the forest is as tangible as the stone beneath their feet.
Chute-des-Georges s'étire avec une simplicité austère le long des rives de la Rivière Shipshaw, là où le courant sculpte patiemment le granit du Grand Coteau. Dans cette partie de Saint-David-de-Falardeau, le vent transporte une fraîcheur minérale qui semble descendre directement des hauteurs du Parc national des Monts-Valin, situé à une distance respectueuse vers le nord. À peine à deux kilomètres de là, le Lac Rond offre une immobilité contrastée, miroir sombre où le ciel du Saguenay se dépose sans bruit avant que la nuit ne vienne envelopper les terres. Le relief, marqué par cette proximité avec le bouclier canadien, impose une cadence lente aux travaux des champs et à l'exploitation forestière qui ont façonné les habitudes des habitants. Plus loin, le fracas des Trois Chutes résonne dans la mémoire géographique du territoire, rappelant la puissance indomptable de l'eau qui irrigue ces terres froides. Chute-des-Georges demeure une présence solitaire, une ponctuation habitée dans l'immensité forestière, où la lumière déclinante du crépuscule fait paraître les conifères plus noirs et les rochers plus denses. Chaque jour, le silence des environs s'installe, soulignant la rudesse élégante d'un paysage qui ne cherche pas à plaire, mais simplement à exister dans sa vérité brute et ses contrastes saisonniers.
