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 Escuminac East.
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.

Escuminac East is a hamlet in Escuminac; Avignon, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Escuminac East is located at 48.1408°N, 66.4250°W.
Escuminac East holds a quiet vigil where the land turns to meet the vast, cooling expanse of the St. Lawrence. It lies 9.1 km north-north-west of Baie-des-Hérons, QC (from Baie-des-Hérons, QC: bearing 336°T), and is situated 13.7 km north of Bois-Joli. The air here carries a salt-brine sharpness, drawing its character from the proximity of the Rivière Nouvelle and the rising slopes near the La Butte. Sunlight at dusk settles heavily upon the water, turning the surface into a sheet of hammered pewter that reflects the solitude of the surrounding hills. Visitors often journey toward the nearby Parc national de Miguasha to glimpse the ancient signatures left in stone, while the Chutes de Brébeuf offer a restless counterpoint to the stillness found near Petit lac à Ted. The terrain remains rugged and honest, shaped by the weight of the tides and the long, patient winters that define the northern edge of the Avignon region. Life in Escuminac East persists through the seasonal cycles of harvest and wood, maintaining a connection to the primary industries that have long anchored the families of the valley. While the local economy looks toward the forest and the shore, the culture of the region finds its deepest expression in the quiet endurance of those who work the land. There is a distinct patience in the way a morning begins here, marked by the rising mist off the Rivière Nouvelle and the steady, solitary labor of the homesteads. Escuminac East survives not through grand gestures, but through the consistent, deliberate habits of a people who know exactly how the wind shifts against the cliffs before a storm.
Escuminac East s'étire avec une patience infinie sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le regard se perd dans l'immensité bleutée qui sépare les terres de la ligne d'horizon. Le paysage y est façonné par une lumière particulière, celle qui baigne les champs et les battures d'une clarté argentée dès que le soir descend sur La Butte. Non loin de là, le murmure constant de la Rivière Nouvelle rythme les journées des habitants, rappelant la proximité des eaux courantes qui irriguent ce sol fertile. La vie s'y organise avec une simplicité héritée des anciens, portée par le vent qui remonte du large pour caresser les hauteurs. À quelques kilomètres, le silence du Petit lac à Ted invite à une halte contemplative, tandis que la puissance sourde des Chutes de Brébeuf souligne la vigueur sauvage du relief environnant. Ceux qui habitent Escuminac East connaissent bien la richesse fossile du Parc national de Miguasha tout proche, dont le prestige géologique imprègne la mémoire collective de toute la région d'Avignon. Entre les terres agricoles et l'estuaire, les jours s'écoulent dans une harmonie tranquille, rythmée par les besognes humbles et la fierté d'appartenir à ce territoire où la terre rencontre indéfiniment la mer, offrant un refuge serein aux âmes en quête de vérité.
