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-de-Rivière-du-Loup.
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.

It lies 2.7 km north-west of Rivière-du-Loup, QC (from Rivière-du-Loup, QC: bearing 316°T), and is situated 11.2 km north-north-west of Saint-Antonin. The terrain rises toward the Mont Pilote, grounding the outlook in a rugged elevation that overlooks the shifting tides and the vast, slate-colored expanse of the water. Just three kilometers inland, the Chutes de Rivière-du-Loup carve a dramatic path through the earth, their constant roar serving as a pulse for the surrounding land. Nearer to the horizon, Lac à Raphaël holds a quiet stillness that contrasts with the restless movement of the river, offering a sanctuary of calm within the landscape.

Economy and daily enterprise have long drawn strength from the river, with the flow of trade and the local harvest shaping the persistence of those who live here. The character of the people reflects a pragmatic endurance, found in the steady maintenance of docks and the careful stewardship of the land stretching toward the Mont Pilote. Traditions here are quiet and deliberate, marked by the changing seasons and the arrival of migratory birds that pause near the mouth of the Rivière du Loup. Life follows the tides, a cycle that defines the local pace as surely as the salt spray that lingers on the evening wind, keeping the memory of the sea close to every doorstep.

À quelques kilomètres, les Chutes de Rivière-du-Loup dictent un rythme immuable par le fracas de leur écume, tandis que la Rivière du Loup serpente avec une lenteur calculée vers l'estuaire. Plus loin, le Lac à Raphaël conserve ses secrets dans une solitude végétale, loin du mouvement des quais où l'activité maritime ponctue les journées. La vie à Pointe-de-Rivière-du-Loup s'organise selon ce dialogue constant entre la rudesse du climat et la stabilité des terres agricoles qui s'étendent à l'horizon.
