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-la-Rive.
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-la-Rive is a village in Les Éboulements; Charlevoix, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Saint-Joseph-de-la-Rive is located at 47.4583°N, 70.3681°W.
Saint-Joseph-de-la-Rive rests firmly against the salt-heavy air of the St. Lawrence, where the land tilts sharply toward the tides. It lies 10.8 km east of Baie-Saint-Paul, QC (from Baie-Saint-Paul, QC: bearing 79°T), and is situated 4.8 km north-north-east of Saint-Bernard-sur-Mer. The terrain here is defined by the steep descent of the escarpment, a rugged slope that cradles the village against the vast, cold expanse of the river. Nearby, the Rivière des Boudreault cuts a quiet path through the terrain, its waters moving with a deliberate, singular purpose toward the estuary, while the landmark known as La Tourelle stands watch over the shifting shoreline. Inland, the landscape holds its secrets in the stillness of the woods, where Lac à Mimi sits tucked away about 4 km from the water’s edge. At dusk, the light catches the surface of the river, turning the grey expanse into a sheet of hammered silver that seems to hold the weight of the sky. History informs the daily life of Saint-Joseph-de-la-Rive, where the maritime legacy remains visible in the sturdy, weathered architecture that faces the currents. The local economy has long looked to the water, drawing strength from the passage of ships and the seasonal cycles of the coast that have sustained families for generations. Artisans and shipwrights once shaped the identity of the village, leaving behind a pride in craftsmanship that persists in the quiet workshops found along the shore. Even now, the sound of the wind moving through the trees and the rhythmic slap of the tide against the docks provide a steady pulse to the day, grounding the village in a reality that feels both timeless and deeply connected to the cold, northern waters.
Saint-Joseph-de-la-Rive s’étire avec une patience minérale le long des rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le fleuve impose sa présence immense et changeante. Sous la lumière oblique du crépuscule, les maisons s’agrippent aux pentes abruptes de Charlevoix, offrant une posture de vigie face aux marées qui rythment l'existence locale. À proximité de La Tourelle, le paysage se fragmente en replis rocheux et en sentiers qui mènent, après une marche de quatre kilomètres environ, vers la sérénité isolée du Lac à Mimi. Les eaux de la Rivière des Boudreault se faufilent entre les roches, murmurant une mélodie ancienne qui accompagne le souvenir des goélettes autrefois construites dans cette zone maritime. L’économie de Saint-Joseph-de-la-Rive, marquée par une longue tradition de navigation et de travail du bois, semble encore vibrer de l’effort des charpentiers marins qui façonnaient l’identité du secteur. L'air y possède cette densité saline et froide, typique du littoral, qui durcit les visages et purifie les pensées des habitants. Dans cette géographie accidentée, chaque détour dévoile une persistance du passé, une manière de demeurer fidèle aux éléments bruts, entre la force tranquille du Lac à Mimi et le souffle infatigable qui remonte depuis le large vers les hauteurs des Éboulements.
