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 Cimetière.
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 Cimetière is a locality in Percé; Le Rocher-Percé, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Le Cimetière is located at 48.4994°N, 64.1786°W.
Le Cimetière stands as a silent observer perched above the St. Lawrence, where the cold, salt-heavy air clings to the rugged slopes near Le Sugar Loaf. It lies 3.6 km south-east of Percé, QC (from Percé, QC: bearing 139°T), and is situated 25.9 km east-north-east of Grande-Rivière. The light here possesses a particular, sharp clarity at dusk, turning the water into hammered silver while the nearby Parc national de l'Île-Bonaventure-et-du-Rocher-Percé looms as a dark, protective silhouette against the horizon. The terrain holds the memory of a maritime life, shaped by the raw persistence of the tides and the wind that sweeps off the gulf. While the Rivière de l'Anse à Beaufils flows through the broader landscape some distance away, Le Cimetière remains anchored to the immediate, vertical drama of the cliffs and the ceaseless motion of the sea. History lingers in the way the local economy has long shifted between the bounty of the water and the seasonal influx of those drawn to the singular geology of this coastline. The people of Le Cimetière carry the quietude of a life lived on the edge of a continent, where the daily routine is dictated more by the shifting temperament of the St. Lawrence than by the clock. Traditions endure in the small, persistent habits of maintenance and the shared knowledge of the currents that churn below. Even as the seasons turn, the presence of the coast defines the character of the site, grounding every stone and path in a permanence that defies the erosion of the years.
Le Cimetière s’étire avec une humilité grave sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le souffle salin du large vient polir la pierre et apaiser les mémoires. À proximité, le Sugar Loaf s'élève en sentinelle muette, dominant les falaises d'un relief qui semble avoir été sculpté par une patience millénaire. Le regard se porte naturellement vers le Parc national de l'Île-Bonaventure-et-du-Rocher-Percé, situé à peine à un kilomètre, dont la présence impose une majesté minérale à tout l'horizon. Plus loin, la Rivière de l'Anse à Beaufils serpente dans un murmure discret, marquant le passage vers d'autres terres marines. Le Cimetière conserve cette atmosphère de recueillement propre aux paysages du littoral gaspésien, où la lumière déclinante du soir transforme le ressac en une écume d'argent. Ici, la vie se mesure à la persistance des vents et au rythme des marées qui battent contre le socle rocheux. Les travailleurs de la mer y ont longtemps puisé leur subsistance, laissant derrière eux une culture forgée par la rigueur du climat et la proximité immédiate de l'immensité bleue. Sous la voûte changeante du ciel, les silhouettes se font rares, mais l'âme de ce rivage demeure, habitée par le silence des vagues et la permanence des rochers.

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.
