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 Gogama.
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.

Gogama is a locality in Sudbury, Ontario, Canada. It is classified as a large city. Gogama is located at 47.6745°N, 81.7252°W.
Gogama sits nestled within the Canadian Shield, a landscape defined by the quiet persistence of the Makami River as it carves a path through the dense, northern woods. It lies 82.7 km south-east of Foleyet, ON (from Foleyet, ON: bearing 140°T), and is situated 19.7 km west-south-west of Mattagami Landing. The terrain here holds a particular stillness, where the air often tastes of pine resin and the cool, damp earth that defines the boreal forest. Nearby, the presence of Frigid Lake adds a sharp, reflective clarity to the local geography, while the expansive, protected reaches of La Motte Lake Provincial Park provide a sanctuary for the wilder elements of the region. At dusk, the light deepens into a bruised violet, catching the surface of the Makami River and turning the water into a dark, slow-moving mirror that reflects the encroaching shadows of the spruce trees. The history of Gogama remains inseparable from the reach of the railway and the extraction of timber, industries that once dictated the pulse of life here. Men and women established their lives around the sawmills and the movement of goods, building a settlement that relied on the strength of the forest and the iron track. Even now, the local economy leans into the natural bounty of the land, with forestry and seasonal tourism serving as the primary anchors for those who call Gogama home. The work is physical and demanding, demanding a respect for the seasonal shifts that dictate when the ice retreats from the riverbanks and when the thaw finally releases the hold of winter. Living in Gogama invites a particular focus on the immediate, where the proximity of the wilderness shapes the cultural character of the residents. Traditions here often revolve around the cycles of the outdoors, with the transition of seasons marking the rhythm of days spent on the water or in the quietude of the surrounding bush. The people possess a pragmatic resilience, a quiet understanding that they exist on the edge of a vast, unyielding geography. While the pace of life lacks the frenetic energy of larger centers, it gains a depth of experience found only in places where the horizon is defined by the treeline and the sky remains expansive, clear, and indifferent to the passing of human time.

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.
Location data for Gogama is sourced from the Canadian Geographical Names Database (CGN), Natural Resources Canada, and verified by coordinates rather than name matching alone. GPS coordinates, province, administrative location and place type are shown in the information panel above.
