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 Pahtauau Tshuap.
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.

Pahtauau Tshuap is a locality in Havre-Saint-Pierre; Minganie, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a town. Pahtauau Tshuap is located at 50.3013°N, 63.9499°W.
Pahtauau Tshuap maintains a watchful presence along the rugged expanse of the St. Lawrence, where the shifting grey light of the northern coast dictates the mood of the shoreline. It lies 25.8 km west-north-west of Havre-Saint-Pierre, QC (from Havre-Saint-Pierre, QC: bearing 284°T), and is situated 14.2 km east-north-east of Longue-Pointe-de-Mingan. The terrain rises toward the Colline Uanahkuan, casting long, stark shadows over the Rivière l'Échouerie that drains toward the sea. Inland, the landscape holds a quiet, austere beauty; Lac Nipis rests in a hollow six kilometers away, while the distant, rushing spray of Chutes Nakatshuan Mantu Hipis drifts seven kilometers off, marking the wilder interior. The air here carries a sharp, metallic clarity, tasting faintly of salt and cold stone, as if the water itself were grinding the earth into something finer. Life in Pahtauau Tshuap persists with a stoic dedication to the demands of the Minganie coast and the cycles of the northern seasons. The local economy relies on the hard-won bounty of the water and the deliberate, seasonal shifts of industry that define the region's character. Generations have navigated the tides and the rocky outcrops, finding a precarious stability in a land that offers little to those who do not respect its endurance. Even in the height of the brief summer, the horizon remains vast and indifferent, grounding the inhabitants in a reality that is both harsh and profoundly honest. Residents go about their work with a focus that mirrors the steady, relentless flow of the Rivière l'Échouerie, finding quiet satisfaction in the persistence required to thrive at the edge of the continent.
Pahtauau Tshuap s’étire avec une lenteur minérale sur les rives vastes du Saint-Laurent, là où le regard s'égare vers l'horizon marin tandis que la terre ferme se soulève doucement vers la Colline Uanahkuan. La lumière du crépuscule y dépose une clarté singulière, presque liquide, qui semble vouloir retenir les heures sur les rives de la Rivière l'Échouerie, dont le cours murmure une mémoire ancienne au passage des vents salins. À quelques lieues de là, les eaux du Lac Nipis dorment dans un silence feutré, tandis que, plus loin encore, le tumulte discret des Chutes Nakatshuan Mantu Hipis rythme le battement invisible du paysage. Il existe dans cette étendue une rigueur héritée des traditions innues et des labeurs maritimes qui ont façonné les habitudes des habitants, forgeant une existence faite de patience et d'observation. Pahtauau Tshuap demeure une présence singulière, une halte où la rudesse du climat boréal se nuance par la persistance d'une vie humble, tournée vers les ressources généreuses de l'eau et du roc. Les jours s'y écoulent sans précipitation, dans le respect d'un territoire dont la beauté austère se dévoile par fragments, entre les roches polies par les marées et l'immensité grise du ciel minganien.
