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'Anse-à-Pierrot.
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'Anse-à-Pierrot is a resort area in Sacré-Cœur; La Haute-Côte-Nord, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. L'Anse-à-Pierrot is located at 48.2308°N, 69.8800°W.
L'Anse-à-Pierrot rests quietly where the land yields to the vast, cold reach of the St. Lawrence. It lies 12.4 km north-east of Secteur Arcand, QC (from Secteur Arcand, QC: bearing 44°T), and is situated 14.5 km north-north-east of Secteur Baribeau. The terrain climbs upward from the water toward the Colline de l'Anse à la Barque, while the Rivière Sainte-Marguerite Nord-Est carves a crisp, persistent path through the surrounding stone and spruce. High above the shoreline, the air holds a sharp, clean clarity that seems to sharpen the edges of the horizon at dusk, turning the water into a sheet of hammered pewter. Inland, the wilder reaches are marked by the presence of Lac des Mouches, a dark mirror tucked away among the trees only a few kilometers from the shore. Beyond the immediate reach of the coast, the sprawling, protected wilderness of Parc national du Fjord-du-Saguenay anchors the landscape, acting as a silent guardian over the rugged topography of the region. Life in L'Anse-à-Pierrot follows the seasonal shifts of the tide and the heavy, white blanket of winter that settles over the Haute-Côte-Nord. Historically, the local economy thrived on the bounty of the river and the dense timber stands that define the slopes, where the scent of balsam fir lingers long after the wind has died down. The people here maintain a steady, practical connection to the landscape, valuing the quietude that comes with living on the fringe of such deep, unyielding geography. Even as the modern world encroaches, the daily life of the residents remains focused on the river’s edge, where the rhythmic slap of waves against the rocks provides a constant, grounding pulse for those who call this place home.
L'Anse-à-Pierrot se déploie avec une humilité tranquille sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le souffle salin du fleuve rencontre la rudesse escarpée de la terre. Dominé par la silhouette familière de la Colline de l'Anse à la Barque, le paysage s'étire vers les méandres de la Rivière Sainte-Marguerite Nord-Est, dont le courant froid charrie les souvenirs des premières occupations forestières. À quelques lieues de là, le silence du Lac des Mouches offre une pause minérale dans l'immensité forestière, tandis que le Parc national du Fjord-du-Saguenay, situé à une trentaine de kilomètres, rappelle la démesure des falaises avoisinantes. Dans L'Anse-à-Pierrot, la lumière du crépuscule glisse sur les eaux sombres avec une lenteur presque palpable, révélant la texture d'un sol façonné par les marées et les hivers longs. Les habitants habitués à cette géographie sauvage cultivent un rapport direct avec les éléments, où chaque levée de soleil sur le rivage dicte le rythme des journées. Cette terre, marquée par une histoire de labeur et de débrouillardise propre aux gens de la Haute-Côte-Nord, conserve une identité brute et sereine, éloignée des artifices, portée par le bruissement constant des conifères et le passage indomptable des eaux.
