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 Pointe-aux-Outardes.
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.

Pointe-aux-Outardes is a village municipality in Pointe-aux-Outardes; Manicouagan, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a town. Pointe-aux-Outardes is located at 49.0500°N, 68.4333°W.
Pointe-aux-Outardes rests where the land yields to the expansive reach of the St. Lawrence. It lies 28.1 km south-west of Baie-Comeau, QC (from Baie-Comeau, QC: bearing 227°T), and is situated 3.5 km south-east of Ragueneau. The Rivière aux Outardes shapes the local geography, carving a path toward the sea that dictates the slow, deliberate pulse of the day. Salt air clings to the edges of the trees, and the light at dusk turns a bruised, metallic violet that seems to settle heavily upon the water. Inland, the terrain holds a quiet solitude, with Lac Lagacé resting approximately 11 km away as a deep, still mirror in the northern woods. Pointe-aux-Outardes maintains a character defined by this proximity to the currents, where the wind carries the persistent, low-frequency hum of a vast and moving maritime horizon. The history of Pointe-aux-Outardes reflects a long relationship with the water and the timber that once defined the regional economy. Residents here work with an awareness of the seasonal shifts, their daily routines mirroring the rise and fall of the tides against the shore. The local landscape remains marked by the legacy of resource management, where the presence of the Rivière aux Outardes has long influenced both industry and the habits of those who dwell along its banks. Life in Pointe-aux-Outardes favors the tangible and the practical, grounded in a geography that demands respect for the cold, clear water and the enduring strength of the northern shoreline.
Pointe-aux-Outardes s'étire avec une patience minérale là où les terres rencontrent l'immensité saline, offrant aux regards la rencontre silencieuse entre les rives du Saint-Laurent et celles de la Rivière aux Outardes. Le vent y possède une texture particulière, une fraîcheur marine qui façonne le caractère de Pointe-aux-Outardes en balayant les espaces ouverts et les zones boisées. À quelques lieues de là, les eaux paisibles du Lac Lagacé conservent une sérénité qui contraste avec le mouvement perpétuel du grand fleuve voisin. La lumière du crépuscule glisse sur le terrain, révélant la rugosité du sol et la persévérance des habitants qui ont bâti leur quotidien sur ces rivages forgés par les éléments. L'histoire locale se lit dans la manière dont les maisons s'orientent vers l'horizon, tournées vers le large, comme si chaque demeure guettait le passage des marées ou le retour des saisons. Ici, la vie se déroule dans une simplicité rigoureuse, dictée par la proximité constante de l'eau et par une géographie qui exige de ceux qui l'occupent une forme d'attention constante. Le paysage, dépouillé de tout artifice, impose son rythme lent, invitant à une observation attentive des variations infimes de la lumière sur les rives de la Rivière aux Outardes.
