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 Petit-Mai.
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.

Petit-Mai is a hamlet in Baie-Trinité; Manicouagan, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Petit-Mai is located at 49.4406°N, 67.2683°W.
Petit-Mai rests along the rugged northern shore of the St. Lawrence, where the land meets the cold, deep currents of the estuary. It lies 3.2 km north-east of Baie-Trinité, QC (from Baie-Trinité, QC: bearing 50°T), and is situated 27.7 km east-north-east of Godbout. The terrain here is defined by the steady flow of the Rivière Petit Mai, which carves a path through the dense, resilient growth of the coastal forest before reaching the sea. Near Le Tableau, the horizon opens wide, revealing a light that turns silver and sharp as the sun dips behind the treeline. Tucked into this quiet geography, Lac à Foin sits just 4 km away, a still mirror reflecting the heavy, grey clouds that often drift in from the gulf. The air carries a sharp, saline clarity, smelling of wet stone and dark spruce, marking the passage of seasons through the changing weight of the wind. Life in Petit-Mai has long been shaped by the presence of the water, which dictates the pace of the days and the labor of those who live nearby. The local identity remains tied to the sea, drawing from a history of maritime work and the persistent, solitary tasks required to sustain a life in such an exposed position. Even as the modern world shifts, the daily habits here stay anchored to the tides and the seasonal rhythms of the coast. The people of Petit-Mai move with a deliberate care, acknowledging the demands of a landscape that provides for them while asking for a constant, quiet watchfulness in return.
Petit-Mai s'étire avec une humilité tranquille le long des rives du Saint-Laurent, là où l'eau sombre semble absorber les dernières lueurs du jour. À proximité du Tableau, le terrain bascule doucement vers la Rivière Petit Mai, dont le courant discret accompagne le rythme lent de ceux qui habitent ces parages. L'air y possède une texture particulière, imprégnée de sel et d'une fraîcheur qui descend des terres intérieures, tandis qu'à quatre kilomètres de distance, le Lac à Foin repose dans un silence minéral. Dans cette zone de la Manicouagan, la vie se définit par la proximité immédiate des éléments, une relation directe entre le sol rocailleux et l'immensité du fleuve. L'histoire de Petit-Mai s'est construite sur cette frontière fragile, où le travail des hommes a toujours dû s'ajuster aux caprices des marées et aux vents qui balayent la côte. Il existe ici une manière singulière d'occuper l'espace, une patience héritée des anciens qui savaient lire les signes du ciel avant que la brume ne s'installe. Chaque maison, tournée vers l'horizon, semble attendre le passage des navires ou le retour des pêcheurs, perpétuant une tradition de présence sobre qui définit l'identité propre de Petit-Mai face à l'étendue bleue.
