Coastal charts of the Gulf of Saint Lawrence covering portions of southeastern Saguenay County in Québec. The first chart ranges roughly 180 miles from the region around the "R. des Hommes" (i.e. the Aguanus River?) eastward past the Natashquan River, the Saint Mary islands, the Mecatina island groups, and Ha Ha Bay, to "petite Baye des Rochers" (i.e. Saint Augustin Bay?).
