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-de-Portneuf.
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.

The air here carries a particular sharpness at dusk, catching the moisture from the nearby St. Lawrence and cooling the valley floor long before the sun disappears behind the rising horizon. Seven kilometers away, the stillness of Lac Pierre offers a quiet counterpoint to the rush of the water, while the more distant Chutes Ford, located about 13 kilometers out, marks the land with the rhythmic, low-frequency hum of falling water. This geography dictates the pace of the day, where the light clings to the riverbanks, illuminating the transition from the low-lying fields to the dense, protective tree lines that define the local perimeter. The history of Saint-Basile-de-Portneuf is grounded in an economy that has long looked toward the land and the water for its sustenance, maintaining a character shaped by the practical demands of agriculture and regional industry. Generations have managed these acres with a quiet diligence, finding value in the soil that borders the Rivière Chaude and the resources provided by the surrounding forest. Life here follows the seasonal shifts of the Quebec climate, a cycle that demands both resilience and a deep familiarity with the immediate environment. Visitors and residents alike find that the identity of the place rests not in grand gestures, but in the enduring presence of the landscape and the steady, recognizable work that sustains the day-to-day survival of the people who call this region home.
