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-aux-Érables.
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-aux-Érables is a resort area in Saint-Félix-d'Otis; Le Fjord-du-Saguenay, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. L'Anse-aux-Érables is located at 48.3539°N, 70.5692°W.
L'Anse-aux-Érables rests where the land leans toward the St. Lawrence, cradled by the rugged terrain of Saint-Félix-d'Otis. It lies 37.3 km east-south-east of Saguenay, QC (from Saguenay, QC: bearing 103°T), and is situated 4.0 km south-south-east of Sainte-Rose-du-Nord. The air here holds a sharp, clean clarity that sharpens the edges of the nearby Côte à François, where the light at dusk turns the water into hammered pewter. Inland, the landscape hides the stillness of Petit lac à Jos-Vincent, a small mirror tucked away just two kilometers from the shore, while the Rivière Sainte-Marguerite winds its course some twelve kilometers distant. Though the vast expanse of Parc national du Fjord-du-Saguenay looms twenty-two kilometers away, the immediate surroundings of L'Anse-aux-Érables feel defined by the quiet persistence of the stone and the rising tide. Life in Le Fjord-du-Saguenay reflects the endurance of those who have long looked to the water for sustenance and passage. The local economy has historically drawn its strength from the interplay between the forest and the deep currents of the St. Lawrence, a tradition that shapes the way residents mark the passing of the seasons. There is a particular texture to the days here, measured by the low-slung sun and the cold, bracing wind that rolls off the basin. Those who reside in L'Anse-aux-Érables carry a quiet understanding of this geography, moving through their chores with the steady, practiced grace of people who know precisely how the land meets the sky.
L'Anse-aux-Érables s'étire le long des rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le regard s'absente dans l'immensité des eaux sombres et froides. À proximité de Côte à François, le relief se cabre et s'adoucit tour à tour, sculptant un horizon que marquent la proximité du Petit lac à Jos-Vincent et la présence, plus lointaine, de la Rivière Sainte-Marguerite. Le climat forge ici des hommes patients, habitués aux rigueurs de l'air qui descend du Parc national du Fjord-du-Saguenay pour envelopper les maisons de sa respiration glacée. L'Anse-aux-Érables conserve une mémoire silencieuse, faite de gestes simples et de labeurs obstinés, où chaque rocher émergeant de la grève semble raconter une histoire de marées et de patience. La lumière déclinante du soir transforme le rivage en une étendue irréelle, soulignant la rudesse du terrain tout en offrant une paix singulière à ceux qui habitent ces terres escarpées. Les jours s'écoulent selon le rythme lent du fleuve, tandis que la terre, exigeante, dicte une existence sobre, tournée vers l'essentiel et l'observation constante de ces horizons vastes qui, par leur seule présence, imposent une humilité naturelle à quiconque s'arrête pour contempler ce paysage dépouillé.
