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 L'Aéroport-du-52.
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.

L'Aéroport-du-52 rests upon the rugged, wind-swept expanse of L'Île-d'Anticosti, holding a singular position where the dense boreal forest meets the vast, grey expanse of the St. Lawrence. It lies 60.6 km south-south-east of Havre-Saint-Pierre, QC (from Havre-Saint-Pierre, QC: bearing 159°T), and is situated 24.3 km east-south-east of Tour-de-la-Rivière-à-l'Huile. The land here possesses a stark, unadorned clarity, where the air holds the sharp scent of spruce needles and brine, and the light at dusk bruises the horizon with deep, melancholic purples. Inland, the terrain holds the quiet presence of Lac de l'Ours, a dark mirror reflecting the sky just three kilometers away, while the Ruisseau Savoy winds its way through the limestone bedrock some eight kilometers distant. Life at L'Aéroport-du-52 feels shaped by this proximity to the elements, where the terrain demands a certain resilience from the earth itself. The history of L'Aéroport-du-52 reflects the island’s peculiar isolation, serving as a vital link for those who navigate the shifting tides and seasonal moods of Minganie. While the local economy remains tied to the cycles of the land and the maintenance of essential connections, the daily operation of the site anchors a steady, persistent pulse against the vastness of the surrounding wilderness. Tradition here is found in the quiet efficiency of the work, a steady focus that ignores the encroaching silence of the interior forests. Residents observe the passing of the seasons with a practical wisdom, knowing that the strength of L'Aéroport-du-52 lies in its function as a bridge between the solitary beauty of the island and the wider world beyond the waves.
L'Aéroport-du-52 se déploie sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le vent salin sculpte une terre austère et souveraine sous l'immensité du ciel de la Minganie. La lumière du couchant y possède une densité particulière, une limpidité presque minérale qui baigne les étendues planes d'une clarté argentée avant que l'obscurité ne s'installe sur le littoral. À quelques kilomètres, le Lac de l'Ours retient dans son miroir immobile le silence des terres intérieures, tandis que plus loin, le Ruisseau Savoy trace son sillon discret à travers une topographie marquée par la rudesse insulaire. Les structures de L'Aéroport-du-52 se dressent face aux courants puissants, rappelant une présence humaine qui a su s'adapter à la rigueur de ces espaces isolés. La vie ici se mesure au rythme des marées et au souffle constant du large, une existence dépouillée de tout artifice où le sol battu par les embruns dicte sa propre loi. Les jours se succèdent sans bruit, habités par une solitude paisible qui n'appartient qu'à ce secteur de l'Île-d'Anticosti, offrant aux rares passants la sensation d'une frontière sauvage où chaque élément naturel conserve sa part de mystère intacte.
