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 Saint-Basile-Station.
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.

Saint-Basile-Station is a hamlet in Saint-Basile; Portneuf, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Saint-Basile-Station is located at 46.7328°N, 71.8075°W.
Saint-Basile-Station rests where the land leans toward the St. Lawrence, defined by a terrain that holds the quiet weight of the Rivière Saint-Jacques. It lies 8.6 km north-west of Donnacona, QC (from Donnacona, QC: bearing 321°T), and is situated 9.0 km west-south-west of Pont-Rouge. The landscape draws its character from the proximity of the Coteau à Jess, a rise that catches the amber slant of late afternoon light, turning the fields into long, golden reaches. Air here carries a crisp, mineral edge, moving across the open ground with a clarity that sharpens the silhouettes of the trees against the horizon. Beyond the immediate reach of the station, the natural world holds its own distance, with Lac B.-P. tucked away nine kilometers off and the rushing water of Chutes Ford lying sixteen kilometers distant, leaving the station to its own steady, terrestrial stillness. The history of Saint-Basile-Station holds to the steady work of the soil and the iron of the rails that once dictated the movement of goods and people. Agriculture remains the primary pulse of the local economy, with farms extending across the plains in orderly, productive lines that mirror the ancient, patient labor of the region. Daily life proceeds with a grounded consistency, marked by the changing seasons that shift the color of the earth from the deep, thawing brown of spring to the heavy green of harvest. Though the pace of industry has evolved, the identity of Saint-Basile-Station stays rooted in the hard-won utility of its geography, preserving a quiet, enduring focus that defines the character of those who live within the reach of the Rivière Saint-Jacques.
Saint-Basile-Station s’étire avec une humilité tranquille sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le souffle du fleuve imprègne chaque pierre d’une humidité saline et persistante. La lumière du couchant y dépose des reflets cuivrés sur les eaux de la Rivière Saint-Jacques, dont le cours sinueux sculpte le relief environnant avec une lenteur immuable. À une distance de neuf kilomètres, la présence paisible du Lac B.-P. apporte une note de calme minéral, tandis que le fracas lointain des Chutes Ford, situées à seize kilomètres, semble murmurer une mélodie sauvage aux oreilles des habitants. L’histoire de Saint-Basile-Station demeure liée à la terre arable et à la rigueur des métiers d’autrefois, façonnant une identité où la rudesse du climat rencontre la persévérance des hommes. Ici, l’air transporte souvent l’odeur des terres labourées, rappelant le labeur agricole qui a permis de domestiquer ces étendues vastes. Les journées s’écoulent dans une cadence mesurée, rythmées par les gestes simples de ceux qui habitent ce territoire marqué par la proximité des eaux. Entre les frondaisons et les champs ouverts, la vie suit un cours naturel, presque secret, porté par une sérénité que seule une terre façonnée par les éléments sait offrir à ceux qui la contemplent avec attention.
