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-Cassien-des-Caps.
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-Cassien-des-Caps is a hamlet in Petite-Rivière-Saint-François; Charlevoix, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Saint-Cassien-des-Caps is located at 47.3586°N, 70.6144°W.
Saint-Cassien-des-Caps anchors itself firmly along the rugged edge of the St. Lawrence, where the land rises sharply to meet the sky. It lies 12.1 km south-west of Baie-Saint-Paul, QC (from Baie-Saint-Paul, QC: bearing 221°T), and is situated 7.1 km north-north-west of Petite-Rivière. The terrain here is defined by the presence of the Petite butte Ronde, a sentinel that oversees the flow of the Rivière à Foin as it carves its path toward the sea. When the light of dusk settles over the water, the air turns crisp and heavy with the scent of brine and pine needles, cooling the slopes that stretch back toward the quiet stillness of Lac Gérard. Life in Saint-Cassien-des-Caps follows the verticality of the terrain, shifting between the maritime influence of the great river and the secluded, wooded depths that lie only three kilometers inland. The history of Saint-Cassien-des-Caps reflects a long-standing dialogue between the inhabitants and the demanding geography of the Charlevoix region. Traditional livelihoods have often turned toward the bounty of the St. Lawrence or the management of the dense timberlands that define the local economy. Throughout the seasons, the residents maintain a connection to the land that feels as constant as the current in the Rivière à Foin. Whether navigating the steep inclines near the Petite butte Ronde or tending to the homesteads sheltered from the coastal winds, the people demonstrate a quiet endurance that marks the character of the region. Even in the height of winter, when the frost tightens its grip on the landscape, there is a distinct, sharp clarity to the horizon that makes every familiar structure appear newly minted against the white expanse.
Saint-Cassien-des-Caps se déploie dans une rigueur minérale là où le regard bascule vers l'immensité salée du Saint-Laurent. Le terrain s'incline avec une patience ancienne, modelé par la proximité de la Petite butte Ronde qui semble veiller sur les parcelles cultivées. L'eau y trace son sillage quotidien, la Rivière à Foin serpentant entre les terres avec une constance qui définit la lenteur du travail des champs. À trois kilomètres, le Lac Gérard conserve une immobilité profonde, miroir sombre où se déposent les brumes matinales avant que le soleil ne vienne brûler l'humidité des vallons. Saint-Cassien-des-Caps habite ce corridor entre le fleuve et les hauteurs, portant en lui une mémoire faite de labeur agricole et de silence partagé face à l'horizon. L'air y possède une texture vive, chargée des effluves du large, tandis que la lumière décline sur les rives en teintes froides et précises. Ici, la vie s'ajuste aux caprices du relief, les habitants reconnaissant dans le mouvement de la Rivière à Foin le rythme même de leur propre persévérance. Chaque arpent de terre, s'étirant vers le fleuve, rappelle que la rudesse du climat n'est qu'une autre forme d'hospitalité offerte à ceux qui choisissent de demeurer sur ces terres hautes.
