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 Le Château-Menier.
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.

Le Château-Menier is a locality in L'Île-d'Anticosti; Minganie, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Le Château-Menier is located at 49.8250°N, 64.3681°W.
Le Château-Menier stands as a solitary sentinel overlooking the St. Lawrence, where the rugged terrain rises toward the Colline Makasti. It lies 72.2 km south-west of Havre-Saint-Pierre, QC (from Havre-Saint-Pierre, QC: bearing 230°T), and is situated 1.5 km west-north-west of Port-Menier. The air here carries the bracing salinity of the gulf, cooling the dense stands of timber that frame the Rivière Plantain. Beyond the immediate reach of the shoreline, the landscape opens into a quiet expanse where Lac Saint-Georges rests in the stillness, its surface a dark mirror for the passing clouds. The light at dusk acquires a singular, bruised violet quality, illuminating the rocky outcrops and the low-lying brush that clings to the island’s edge. This environment demands a certain resilience, as the wind off the water dictates the posture of the trees and the daily movements of those who inhabit these remote reaches. Henri Menier once envisioned a grand private estate here, transforming the wild character of the island into a personal fiefdom that left an enduring mark on the local landscape. While the original ambition of a thriving, self-contained industrial outpost has long since faded, the remnants of that era persist in the architecture and the lingering sense of isolation that defines Le Château-Menier. Today, the economy leans into the stewardship of these vast, untamed natural spaces, drawing those who seek the silence of the north. Life here moves in accordance with the turning seasons and the unpredictable temperament of the St. Lawrence, preserving a heritage that is as much defined by the surrounding wilderness as by the remnants of the past.
Le Château-Menier se dresse face à l'immensité du Saint-Laurent, gardien solitaire d'une histoire forgée par l'ambition industrielle et la rudesse du climat septentrional. Autrefois centre névralgique des activités de l'île, cette demeure imposante domine les rives de la Rivière Plantain, là où le vent salin sculpte le relief et presse les herbes contre la terre sauvage. La silhouette de la construction s'étire près de la Colline Makasti, observant le passage des heures sous une lumière boréale qui semble suspendre le monde dans une clarté presque irréelle. À quelques pas, les eaux calmes du Lac Saint-Georges offrent une halte paisible, un contraste minéral avec le mouvement perpétuel du fleuve tout proche. Le Château-Menier conserve en ses murs le souvenir d'une époque où l'exploitation forestière et la vision d'un seul homme dictaient le rythme des existences, marquant durablement le paysage de son architecture singulière. Aujourd'hui, l'air frais qui circule entre les arbres et les rivages chargés d'histoire rappelle la persistance de cette présence humaine dans la Minganie. Chaque pierre, chaque étendue d'eau environnante, raconte une volonté farouche de bâtir sur un sol indompté, forçant le regard à admirer la rencontre entre la grandeur du bâti et la puissance brute de la nature québécoise.
