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 Secteur Chicotte.
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.

Secteur Chicotte is a administrative sector in L'Île-d'Anticosti; Minganie, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Secteur Chicotte is located at 49.3662°N, 63.0770°W.
Secteur Chicotte rests upon the rugged, limestone-shelved expanse of L'Île-d'Anticosti, where the earth holds the stillness of deep geological time. It lies 104.6 km south-south-east of Havre-Saint-Pierre, QC (from Havre-Saint-Pierre, QC: bearing 159°T), and is situated 62.6 km south-east of Tour-de-la-Rivière-à-l'Huile. The air here tastes of salt and ancient stone, carrying a crisp clarity that renders the horizon sharp against the sky. Inland, the terrain reaches toward Lac Jolliet, located about 8 km away, where the water gathers in dark, reflective basins amidst the dense boreal growth. To the north, the Rivière Vauréal courses through the island’s interior roughly 12 km from this point, carving its path through the bedrock with a persistence that echoes in the quiet of the woods. Further afield, the protected wilderness of Parc national d'Anticosti lies about 23 km away, standing as a vast guardian of the island’s untamed character. At dusk, the light stretches thin and pale over the barrens, turning the limestone outcrops into shades of bruised violet and grey. The history of Secteur Chicotte remains anchored to the singular, isolated rhythms of life on this remote island in the Minganie region. Economic pursuits here have long been shaped by the sparse, deliberate extraction of resources and the seasonal migrations that define the northern maritime experience. Life proceeds with a focused intensity, whether in the management of the island’s unique wildlife or the stewardship of its secluded forests. The presence of Secteur Chicotte is marked by a profound silence, broken only by the wind moving through the conifers and the distant, rhythmic grinding of the tides against the shore. Those who inhabit this landscape find themselves attuned to the shifting seasons, where the cold arrives with a sudden, heavy authority that demands both respect and resilience from the land.
Secteur Chicotte déploie sa présence minérale sous un ciel vaste qui semble peser de tout son poids sur les strates calcaires de l'île. Ici, l’air possède une netteté coupante, chargée d’embruns et de cette solitude particulière que seuls les espaces isolés du Québec savent offrir. À quelques lieues, le Lac Jolliet calme les ardeurs du vent, tandis que la Rivière Vauréal poursuit son tracé obstiné vers la mer, dessinant des cicatrices profondes dans la roche ancienne. La proximité du Parc national d'Anticosti impose une rigueur sauvage, rappelant que la nature demeure la véritable maîtresse de ces terres où les arbres plient sans rompre. Secteur Chicotte observe le crépuscule glisser sur les falaises, transformant les nuances grises du terrain en une palette de teintes cuivrées. Dans ce silence presque palpable, la vie s'organise selon des rites simples, dictés par la force des éléments et l'immensité du golfe. Les habitants, habitués à cette rudesse, cultivent une patience farouche, préférant la lecture des marées à l'agitation des mondes lointains. Chaque sentier, chaque recoin de cette topographie accidentée raconte une histoire de résistance face aux assauts du large, faisant de Secteur Chicotte un sanctuaire où le temps se mesure davantage par la course des ombres que par le tic-tac des horloges.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any Canadian town, county or landmark by name; offers the Canada Base Map with Toporama contours and shaded relief as base layers; overlays a labelled UTM grid so the map can be read like a printed NTS sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
