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 Gascons-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.

Gascons-Ouest is a hamlet in Port-Daniel–Gascons; Le Rocher-Percé, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Gascons-Ouest is located at 48.1925°N, 64.8950°W.
Gascons-Ouest rests where the firm, salt-heavy breath of the St. Lawrence meets the sheltered contours of the Le Gros Morne. It lies 23.6 km south-west of Chandler, QC (from Chandler, QC: bearing 223°T), and is situated 7.5 km east-north-east of Port-Daniel-Centre. The landscape here possesses a raw, unvarnished clarity, defined by the steady presence of the Rivière de l'Anse à la Barbe as it carves its way toward the coast. Just two kilometers inland, the quiet surface of Lac Vignet holds the reflection of the sky, grounding the terrain in a stillness that persists even when the wind stirs the coastal brush. At dusk, the light loses its sharp edge, turning the hills into deep, bruised purples that seem to exhale the day’s warmth back into the cooling air. The history of Gascons-Ouest is held in the persistence of those who worked the shoreline and the timbered slopes of Port-Daniel–Gascons. Life in Le Rocher-Percé demands a practical attention to the turning of the seasons, where the local economy has long balanced the yields of the water with the stubborn resilience of the land. The rhythm of the day follows the tide and the shifting currents, leaving little room for artifice in the work that sustains the people here. Even today, the character of Gascons-Ouest remains marked by a certain reticence, a quiet strength that mirrors the sturdy, salt-sprayed wood of the older buildings standing against the northern weather.
Gascons-Ouest s'étire avec une patience minérale sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le relief du Gros Morne impose sa silhouette altière à l'horizon maritime. Le regard s'y perd dans l'immensité saline, tandis que les eaux de la Rivière de l'Anse à la Barbe serpentent entre les terres pour rejoindre le grand large, marquant le rythme d'une existence tournée vers l'estuaire. À quelques pas seulement, les eaux calmes du Lac Vignet captent la lumière déclinante du soir, renvoyant l'éclat changeant d'un ciel qui semble ne jamais vouloir s'éteindre tout à fait. Les familles qui occupent ces espaces, héritières d'une ténacité forgée par les vents, entretiennent une relation intime avec ce sol rocailleux et ce littoral accidenté. Gascons-Ouest conserve la mémoire des labeurs passés, ceux du bois et de la mer, dont les échos persistent dans le silence des anses. La rudesse du climat n'entame pas la sérénité des jours, elle sculpte plutôt les habitudes, imposant une sobriété élégante à chaque geste quotidien. Ici, le paysage dicte sa loi, exigeant que l'on se courbe devant la puissance des éléments, tout en offrant, dans le creux des falaises et le murmure des courants, une beauté austère qui appartient exclusivement à ce rivage.
