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-Ignace.
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-Ignace is a hamlet in Château-Richer; La Côte-de-Beaupré, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Saint-Ignace is located at 47.0353°N, 71.0508°W.
Saint-Ignace rests upon the sloping edge of the St. Lawrence, where the land rises steadily toward the heights of the La Grande Côte. It lies 8.1 km west-north-west of Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré, QC (from Sainte-Anne-de-Beaupré, QC: bearing 285°T), and is situated 11.5 km west of Beaupré. The Rivière du Sault à la Puce carves its way through the terrain, its passage marked by the distant, rhythmic rush of the Chutes du Sault à la Puce, while the quiet stillness of Lac Rouge sits tucked away in the higher reaches of the landscape. As dusk settles, a pale, cooling light spills across the riverbank, turning the water into a sheet of hammered silver that catches the slow movement of the tide. The air here holds a crispness drawn from the expanse of the St. Lawrence, carrying the scent of damp earth and salt that defines the transition between the valley floor and the rising bluffs. Saint-Ignace maintains a character forged by the enduring labor of those who first cleared the soil along the shore. Agriculture remains a presence in the rhythms of the day, with fields stretching toward the horizon to capture the long hours of sun that grace this part of Quebec. The local industry reflects a deep familiarity with the water and the wood, sustained by generations who have looked to the river as the primary artery for trade and travel. Even now, the life of Saint-Ignace moves with a deliberate, steady pace, defined by the seasonal turns of the harvest and the quiet endurance of a people whose history is held in the sturdy architecture of their homes and the persistent flow of the Rivière du Sault à la Puce.
Saint-Ignace s’étire avec une patience ancienne le long des rives du Saint-Laurent, là où la terre de La Grande Côte s’incline doucement vers les eaux mouvantes. Le paysage se définit par la présence constante de la Rivière du Sault à la Puce qui serpente à travers le relief, sculptant le terrain avant de poursuivre sa course vers le grand fleuve. À quelques kilomètres dans les terres, le Lac Rouge conserve une quiétude profonde, tandis qu’à sept kilomètres de là, le fracas des Chutes du Sault à la Puce impose une note plus sauvage à cette géographie côtière. Saint-Ignace puise sa force dans cette alliance entre la plaine fertile et les courants fluviaux qui ont façonné l’existence des habitants depuis les premiers défrichements. La lumière du crépuscule y possède une qualité singulière, dorant les champs et les battures d’une teinte cuivrée qui semble suspendre le temps au-dessus du rivage. L’économie locale, portée par une agriculture tenace, dialogue avec cet horizon ouvert où le ciel se confond souvent avec l’immensité salée. Ici, la vie suit le rythme des marées et le souffle des vents qui remontent la vallée, offrant aux résidents de Saint-Ignace une existence intimement liée à la texture même de ce sol riche et aux méandres de la rivière.
