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 Gros-Pin.
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 Gros-Pin is a locality in Saint-Antoine-de-l'Isle-aux-Grues; Montmagny, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Le Gros-Pin is located at 47.0414°N, 70.5689°W.
Le Gros-Pin rests as a silent sentinel upon the St. Lawrence, where the shifting salt-heavy air clings to the low-lying terrain near the Colline du Télégraphe. It lies 6.8 km north of Montmagny, QC (from Montmagny, QC: bearing 353°T), and is situated 8.5 km west of Cap-Saint-Ignace. The landscape here holds a persistent, damp chill that rises from the river, grounding the horizon in shades of slate and deep, bruised indigo as the light wanes. Inland, the character of the earth changes, marked by the presence of the Rivière à Lacaille flowing through the quiet distance and the hidden, still basin of Lac Noël-Morin. Even the distant, rushing roar of Chutes à Zado seems to reach Le Gros-Pin only as a phantom vibration, a reminder of the restless water that defines the life of the island. The history of Le Gros-Pin remains anchored in the stubborn resilience of those who cultivate the river-fed soil and harvest the bounty of these islands. Life here follows the turning of the tides and the seasonal demands of agriculture, a quiet labor that resists the frantic pace of the mainland. Traditions persist in the small, functional rhythms of the day, where the work of generations keeps the local economy aligned with the river’s reach. In the quiet corners of the fields, one finds the enduring spirit of a people who have long understood how to thrive within the reach of the St. Lawrence, finding beauty in the stark, unadorned edges of their island home.
Le Gros-Pin domine les terres basses qui s’étirent le long des rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le fleuve impose son souffle salin et ses marées puissantes aux habitants de Saint-Antoine-de-l'Isle-aux-Grues. À proximité, la silhouette de la Colline du Télégraphe veille sur les plaines fertiles tandis que, dans un silence de terre profonde, la Rivière à Lacaille serpente à six kilomètres de distance, menant ses eaux vers l'estuaire. Le paysage, marqué par une agriculture qui puise sa force dans le limon, se prolonge vers le Lac Noël-Morin distant de sept kilomètres, et vers les Chutes à Zado qui grondent à quatorze kilomètres, rappelant la vigueur des courants intérieurs. Le Gros-Pin conserve cette allure de sentinelle solitaire, bâtie sur une patience ancienne héritée des premiers défricheurs qui apprivoisèrent ce sol ingrat mais généreux. La lumière du crépuscule y transforme les champs en étendues cuivrées, révélant la texture rugueuse de l'écorce des conifères qui ont donné leur nom à ces parcelles. Ici, la vie s'ajuste au rythme des vents qui remontent le courant, sculptant la patience des gens et la solidité des maisons qui défient l'humidité constante du grand fleuve, offrant un horizon dépouillé de tout artifice où seul le ciel immense dialogue avec la terre.
