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 Jaco-Hughes.
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.

Jaco-Hughes is a hamlet in Grosses-Roches; La Matanie, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Jaco-Hughes is located at 48.9281°N, 67.2122°W.
Jaco-Hughes rests along the northern edge of the Gaspé Peninsula, where the land tilts toward the salt-heavy air of the St. Lawrence. It lies 25.1 km east-north-east of Matane, QC (from Matane, QC: bearing 68°T), and is situated 3.2 km west-south-west of Grosses-Roches. Within the Côte à Marguerite, the terrain rises in rugged swells that catch the low, slanted light of late afternoon, casting long shadows across the fields that reach toward the water. The horizon holds a vast, cooling clarity, while inland, the landscape shifts toward the quiet solitude of Lac Bouchard, tucked seven kilometers away in the interior. Even the air feels different here, sharpened by the proximity of the Petite rivière Matane, which winds its course ten kilometers distant, carving a slow path through the bedrock. Life in Jaco-Hughes follows the seasonal shifts of the coast, where the weight of the sea dictates the tempo of the day. The local economy persists through a grounded connection to the earth and the nearby waters, reflecting the resilience of a people accustomed to the northern climate. Historic practices of forestry and agriculture linger in the quiet persistence of the barns and the cleared plots that break the dense tree line. Throughout the day, the stillness of the coast is interrupted only by the wind or the distant, rhythmic movement of the tide against the shore, reminding those who live here of the raw, elemental scale of the landscape.
Jaco-Hughes s'étire avec une humilité grave sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le ciel bas de la Matanie semble vouloir peser sur le ressac perpétuel du grand fleuve. La lumière du crépuscule y possède une densité particulière, une limpidité froide qui révèle les contours nets des terres agricoles et des boisés bordant le Côte à Marguerite. À quelques lieues vers l'intérieur des terres, les eaux de la Petite rivière Matane poursuivent leur course discrète, tandis que les reflets sombres du Lac Bouchard reposent dans le silence des hauteurs, à une distance qui sépare les travaux des champs de la solitude des forêts. Les hommes et les femmes de Jaco-Hughes ont façonné leur existence entre cette puissance saline du large et la rudesse du sol, bâtissant une vie quotidienne rythmée par l'entretien des parcelles et le respect des vents marins qui balaient le relief. La rudesse du climat, loin d'être un obstacle, définit la stature de ces paysages où chaque battisse, chaque rangée de culture, semble puiser sa force dans la persistance de l'horizon. Ici, le temps ne se mesure pas en heures, mais en marées qui viennent lécher les berges, rappelant sans cesse à ceux qui habitent ces lieux la proximité immédiate de l'immensité liquide.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any Canadian town, county or landmark by name; offers the Canada Base Map with Toporama contours and shaded relief as base layers; overlays a labelled UTM grid so the map can be read like a printed NTS sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
