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 Pied-de-la-Côte.
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 Pied-de-la-Côte is a locality in Matane; La Matanie, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Le Pied-de-la-Côte is located at 48.8491°N, 67.5231°W.
Le Pied-de-la-Côte rests where the heavy, salt-edged air of the St. Lawrence meets the rising earth of the Montagne à Ti-Jaune. The Rivière Matane carves a persistent path through this terrain, its cold, clear waters pulling the gaze toward the horizon where the river broadens to join the sea. Along the shore, the proximity of Le Barachois creates a quiet threshold, a place where the silt and stones gather in the hush of the tide. At dusk, the light here loses its sharpness, turning the surface of the water into a sheet of hammered pewter that reflects the darkening slopes of the Montagne à Ti-Jaune. Life in Le Pied-de-la-Côte follows the turning of the seasons, shaped by the demands of a landscape that does not yield easily to human intent. The economy has long drawn its vitality from the river and the surrounding heights, maintaining a focus on the resources provided by the woods and the currents. Those who dwell here observe the daily passage of the Rivière Matane with a practiced eye, noting the subtle shifts in the water level that signal the changing weather. Even in the stillness of a winter morning, the presence of the coast defines the character of the settlement, ensuring that every inhabitant remains aware of the vast, shifting expanse of the St. Lawrence just beyond the reach of the shore.
Le Pied-de-la-Côte s'étire avec une humilité tranquille sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le souffle salin rencontre la terre ferme. La lumière du crépuscule s’attarde sur les pentes de la Montagne à Ti-Jaune, enveloppant les habitations d'une clarté dorée qui semble suspendre le mouvement du monde. À proximité immédiate, la Rivière Matane poursuit son cours inlassable vers l'estuaire, tandis que les eaux calmes du Barachois épousent le rivage dans un silence presque minéral. Le Pied-de-la-Côte façonne son existence selon le rythme des marées et la rudesse bienveillante de ce relief dominant, où chaque maison, chaque clôture, semble répondre à la géographie rigoureuse de la côte. L'air, chargé d'une humidité vivifiante, porte en lui les vestiges d'un quotidien tourné vers les richesses marines et la terre nourricière. Les résidents observent ce paysage inchangé, où les reflets changeants du fleuve dictent l'humeur des journées. Ici, la présence de la Rivière Matane et la masse protectrice de la Montagne à Ti-Jaune imposent une perspective où l'humain s'efface devant la permanence des éléments, créant une atmosphère de sérénité brute, héritée d'un lien ancien avec cet espace littoral si singulier.
