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-François-de-Pabos.
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-François-de-Pabos is a village in Chandler; Le Rocher-Percé, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Saint-François-de-Pabos is located at 48.3806°N, 64.6306°W.
Saint-François-de-Pabos rests where the land leans toward the St. Lawrence, defined by the quiet persistence of the Rivière du Petit Pabos as it carves a path toward the sea. It lies 5.0 km north-east of Chandler, QC (from Chandler, QC: bearing 45°T), and is situated 10.1 km west-south-west of Grande-Rivière. The terrain rises toward Le Gros Morne, a silent sentinel that holds the morning mist against its slopes until the sun burns the grey light into a sharp, coastal clarity. Near the water, the air carries a salt-heavy chill that clings to the spruce and cedar, while the stillness of Lac du Détroit, hidden just a short distance inland, offers a mirror to the passing clouds. Even in the height of summer, the wind off the gulf reminds those who live here of the vast, cold depths that shape the horizon. Life in Saint-François-de-Pabos reflects the enduring patterns of the Gaspé Peninsula, where the local economy has long looked to the sea and the harvest of the surrounding woods for its sustenance. Residents maintain a steady focus on the work at hand, drawing strength from a history that values resilience over outward display. Although Parc national de l'Île-Bonaventure-et-du-Rocher-Percé stands as a striking landmark further up the coast, the character of Saint-François-de-Pabos remains grounded in its own quiet lanes and the honest labor of its inhabitants. The days here follow the movement of the tides and the changing seasons, marked by the simple, heavy beauty of iron-grey winter afternoons and the sudden, vivid green of a spring that arrives with the thaw of the river ice.
Saint-François-de-Pabos s’étire le long des rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le souffle salin rencontre la rudesse des terres gaspésiennes. À proximité du Gros Morne, les maisons épousent le relief accidenté, tandis que la Rivière du Petit Pabos serpente vers l'estuaire avec une constance souveraine. Le Lac du Détroit, blotti à quelques kilomètres dans les terres, offre un calme minéral à ceux qui s'éloignent de l'agitation des marées. L'histoire de Saint-François-de-Pabos demeure indissociable de ces eaux froides, façonnant une économie tournée vers l'horizon et les ressources marines. En levant les yeux vers le large, la silhouette lointaine du Parc national de l'Île-Bonaventure-et-du-Rocher-Percé semble veiller sur le littoral. Ici, la lumière du crépuscule décline sur les battures avec une lenteur solennelle, transformant chaque onde en une plaque d'argent éphémère. Les familles partagent une existence rythmée par la rudesse climatique, perpétuant des savoir-faire hérités des ancêtres qui ont choisi de bâtir leur destin face à l'immensité océanique. Le vent apporte souvent, par-delà les crêtes, le souvenir des premières installations humaines, transformant la simplicité du quotidien en une forme de persévérance silencieuse, portée par la force des éléments et la permanence de ce rivage singulier.
