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-Joseph-de-Matapédia.
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-Joseph-de-Matapédia is a hamlet in Saint-François-d'Assise; Avignon, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Saint-Joseph-de-Matapédia is located at 47.9333°N, 67.1000°W.
Saint-Joseph-de-Matapédia rests upon the elevated, rugged terrain near the Sugar Hill, overlooking the winding path of the Restigouche River. It lies 31.9 km west-south-west of Campbellton, QC (from Campbellton, QC: bearing 257°T), and is situated 12.7 km west-south-west of Matapédia. The air here holds a particular crispness, sharpened by the proximity of the high ground, where the light at dusk settles in long, bruised purples against the slopes. Life in Saint-Joseph-de-Matapédia is defined by the persistent presence of the surrounding forest and the quiet endurance of those who work the land within the municipality of Saint-François-d'Assise in Avignon. While the modern world moves with a different intensity, the local economy keeps its focus on the cyclical demands of forestry and agriculture, trades that have anchored the families here for generations. Farther afield, the stillness of Lac du Pin Rouge sits fifteen kilometers away, while the cold rush of Little Falls marks the landscape eighteen kilometers distant, both serving as quiet markers in a region that prefers its own company to the clamor of the outside world.
Saint-Joseph-de-Matapédia s’étire avec une patience minérale sur les hauteurs qui dominent les rives de la rivière Restigouche, là où le ciel bas semble vouloir toucher la terre. À proximité de la colline Sugar, le regard plonge vers les vallées profondes tandis que la lumière du soir dépose une patine cuivrée sur les champs défrichés par les pionniers venus chercher leur subsistance dans ce sol exigeant. Les habitants de Saint-Joseph-de-Matapédia portent en eux la rigueur de ces terres de la région de Saint-François-d'Assise, travaillant le bois et la terre avec une obstination qui défie le froid. À une quinzaine de kilomètres, le Lac du Pin Rouge offre un miroir immobile au milieu des conifères, et plus loin, à dix-huit kilomètres, les chutes Little ponctuent le silence forestier d’un grondement sourd. La vie quotidienne y suit le rythme lent des travaux agricoles et forestiers, façonnant une identité où la rudesse du climat se mêle à une forme de fraternité silencieuse. Ici, chaque saison impose ses exigences, transformant les reliefs en autant de défis pour ceux qui ont choisi de bâtir leur existence face aux courants de la Restigouche, dans cette enclave où le temps semble suspendu aux crêtes boisées.
