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 Les Cimes.
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.

Les Cimes is a administrative sector in L'Anse-Saint-Jean; Le Fjord-du-Saguenay, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Les Cimes is located at 48.1528°N, 70.3622°W.
Les Cimes rises as a quiet presence above the Côte à François, where the land holds the weight of the sky in its high, craggy posture. It lies 27.2 km west of Secteur Arcand, QC (from Secteur Arcand, QC: bearing 271°T), and is situated 14.6 km south-west of L'Anse-Saint-Jean. The air here bears the sharp, clean scent of the Rivière Saint-Jean, which pulls cold mountain runoff toward the horizon with an insistent, metallic clarity. Nearby, Lac Étienne reflects the changing moods of the clouds, its stillness a stark contrast to the vast, protected expanses of the Parc national du Fjord-du-Saguenay that press against the northern edge of the horizon. In the late afternoon, the light slants across the rock faces, turning the grey stone into a pale, glowing embers that seem to hold the warmth long after the sun has slipped away. The history of Les Cimes persists in the way the land was cleared and settled, a labor born of necessity and the stubborn endurance of those who learned to work the timber and the soil. Life in Les Cimes follows the seasonal pulse of the region, where the economy remains tied to the cycles of the forest and the enduring appeal of the landscape to those seeking the quietude of the north. Local traditions are marked by the persistence of craftsmanship and a deep-seated respect for the rugged terrain that defines the borders of every day. Residents move with a deliberate grace, accustomed to the steep slopes and the way the wind moves through the valleys, finding a steady comfort in the isolation that keeps the modern world at a respectful distance.
Les Cimes s’étirent avec une lenteur minérale sur les hauteurs qui dominent la Rivière Saint-Jean, là où la lumière décline en longs rubans dorés sur les pentes de la Côte à François. La terre y garde la mémoire des travaux rudes, façonnée par des générations qui ont su lire dans le relief le rythme de leur propre existence. À quelques encablures, le Lac Étienne repose dans un silence de verre, offrant une respiration plus calme au milieu de cette topographie escarpée. L’air, chargé d’une humidité vive, porte en lui le souffle des vastes étendues du Parc national du Fjord-du-Saguenay, dont la présence impose une verticalité souveraine sur tout l’horizon. Dans ce repli de la géographie, Les Cimes maintient un dialogue constant avec le courant de la Rivière Saint-Jean, dont le murmure ininterrompu accompagne les gestes quotidiens des habitants. Chaque soir, alors que l’ombre gagne les replis du terrain, la silhouette des bois se découpe sur un ciel qui semble s’ouvrir davantage. Il existe ici une droiture dans la pierre et le bois, une manière de s’inscrire dans le paysage qui refuse le superflu, préférant la simplicité d’une terre qui ne demande que peu de mots pour révéler sa beauté austère et souveraine.
