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 Péribonka.
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.

Péribonka is a municipality in Péribonka; Maria-Chapdelaine, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a town. Péribonka is located at 48.7657°N, 72.0496°W.
Péribonka anchors itself firmly where the Rivière Péribonka spills its dark, cold currents into the vast expanse of Lac Saint-Jean. It lies 17.8 km south-east of Dolbeau-Mistassini, QC (from Dolbeau-Mistassini, QC: bearing 134°T), and is situated 15.1 km west-north-west of Sainte-Monique. The air here holds a crystalline clarity, sharpened by the proximity of the water, which reflects the bruised purples and golds of a northern sunset with startling intensity. Roughly 10 km away, the protected sands and jack pines of Parc national de la Pointe-Taillon offer a sanctuary of stillness, while the distant, rushing energy of Chutes du Père-William, located 14 km inland, reminds the listener that the interior remains wild and untamed. Péribonka exists as a dialogue between the forest and the lake, a terrain defined by the heavy, deliberate movement of water against a shoreline of stone and silt. The soul of Péribonka is deeply bound to the literature of Louis Hémon, whose presence has shaped the identity of the region more profoundly than any industry. While the local economy has long leaned into the rhythms of agriculture and the timber trade, the settlement retains a quiet pride in its role as a sentinel of the north. Life in Péribonka follows the seasonal tilt of the earth, where the harvest and the freeze dictate the pace of the day. A visitor might notice the way light lingers on the weathered siding of older buildings, a pale, northern illumination that makes the simple act of stacking wood or watching the river seem like a necessary, sacred duty.
Péribonka s'étire avec une noblesse tranquille sur les rives du Lac Saint-Jean, là où les eaux vastes épousent le cours impétueux de la Rivière Péribonka. Le sol, façonné par les labours et le labeur des pionniers, garde la mémoire vive de ceux qui ont défriché cette terre rude pour y bâtir un foyer. À dix kilomètres, le Parc national de la Pointe-Taillon offre une étendue sauvage où le vent du nord sculpte les dunes et les sentiers, tandis qu'à quatorze kilomètres, les Chutes du Père-William murmurent une cadence éternelle à travers la forêt boréale. Lorsque le crépuscule descend sur Péribonka, une lumière dorée et fragile baigne les champs, révélant la texture minérale du terrain et l'immensité de l'horizon. Cette terre, façonnée par les éléments et l'histoire des premiers occupants, maintient un lien profond avec ses racines agricoles, cultivant avec patience la richesse d'un terroir exigeant. La vie s'y déploie sans artifice, rythmée par les changements de température et la présence constante de l'eau qui encercle et protège le territoire. Dans ce cadre où le ciel semble toucher les rivages, chaque habitant porte en soi la persévérance nécessaire pour habiter ces espaces grandioses, loin de l'agitation des métropoles, dans une quiétude que seul le souffle du vent vient troubler.

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.
