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 Gauthier.
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.

Gauthier is a hamlet in Chandler; Le Rocher-Percé, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Gauthier is located at 48.3783°N, 64.6458°W.
Gauthier rests where the land leans toward the St. Lawrence, cradled by the rugged rise of Le Gros Morne. It lies 4.1 km north-east of Chandler, QC (from Chandler, QC: bearing 36°T), and is situated 11.3 km west-south-west of Grande-Rivière. The cool, salt-heavy air carries the respiration of the sea, settling over the winding course of the Rivière du Petit Pabos as it carves a path toward the gulf. Sunlight catches the surface of Lac Elbow, situated only a few kilometers inland, reflecting a stillness that contrasts with the restless tides nearby. The terrain here holds a quiet gravity, defined by the sharp edges of the coast and the deep, enduring presence of the water that shapes the horizon. Life in Gauthier moves in alignment with the demands of the coast and the cycles of the seasons. Residents maintain a connection to the traditions of the region, where the economy has long been shaped by the harvest of the sea and the timber of the surrounding hills. While the distant silhouette of Parc national de l'Île-Bonaventure-et-du-Rocher-Percé marks the wider geography of the coast, Gauthier retains a focused character, anchored by the steady work of those who know the currents and the woods. Evenings here bring a clarity to the atmosphere, as the dusk light lingers against the slopes, illuminating the daily persistence of a life lived close to the elements.
Gauthier s'étire le long des rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le souffle salin de l'estuaire rencontre la terre ferme dans une danse de brumes et de lumière déclinante. Ici, le paysage est dominé par la silhouette imposante du Gros Morne, gardien minéral qui surplombe les eaux froides et le quotidien des habitants. Les courants de la Rivière du Petit Pabos serpentent à travers le relief, marquant le rythme d'une contrée tournée vers l'horizon marin. Non loin de là, les eaux paisibles du Lac Elbow offrent un contraste de calme intérieur à la rudesse du littoral, tandis que le Parc national de l'Île-Bonaventure-et-du-Rocher-Percé se devine à quelques lieues, rappelant la majesté géologique qui définit cette partie du monde. Gauthier porte en lui la mémoire du labeur et la ténacité des gens qui ont su apprivoiser ce sol rocailleux, transformant le dur climat en une existence simple et robuste. Le soir venu, le soleil se retire derrière les reliefs, baignant le rivage d'une clarté cuivrée qui révèle la texture brute des roches et la persistance des traditions. La vie se déploie sans artifice, rythmée par les marées et le vent qui balaie les espaces ouverts, confirmant que Gauthier appartient avant tout à la mer et aux éléments primordiaux.
