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 Kenora.
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.

Kenora is a community in Kenora, Ontario, Canada. It is classified as a major city. Kenora is located at 49.7639°N, 94.5067°W.
Kenora rests upon the rugged, enduring shield of the Canadian landscape, anchored firmly to the expansive shore of Lake of the Woods. It lies 56.8 km north-west of Whitefish Bay, ON (from Whitefish Bay, ON: bearing 315°T), and is situated 3.6 km east of Keewatin. The history of Kenora began as a site of transit and trade, attracting those who sought to navigate the complex waterways that define this northern territory. Early settlers arrived to harness the power of the land, building a settlement that gradually expanded from a modest outpost into a significant hub. The architecture of the older streets still reflects the persistence of those who first cleared the stone and timber, establishing a permanent foothold near the Orange Hill. As the decades passed, the growth of Kenora followed the contours of the shoreline, mirroring the way the water pushes against the land, always patient and persistent. Today, the economy of Kenora draws its strength from the natural abundance of the surrounding wilderness, balancing resource-based industries with a growing commitment to tourism. The proximity to the Black Sturgeon River and the recreational opportunities at Rushing River Provincial Park provide a steady pulse for local commerce, drawing visitors who value the quiet majesty of the boreal landscape. Residents often find that the work of the day is punctuated by the shifting light across the water, a constant reminder of the environment that dictates the flow of trade and livelihood. Kenora serves as a vital service centre for the surrounding region, maintaining a steady output of goods and services while supporting the families who have made their lives within these rocky borders. The cultural identity of Kenora reflects the deep, quiet resilience of people who live close to the elements, where the turning of the seasons dictates the pace of public life. While Kenora does not house a major university, the intellectual life of the place is found in its local traditions and the stories shared by those who have long called this shore their home. Notable figures, including the celebrated curler Mike Riley, have emerged from this climate, carrying with them the grit and precision learned in a land of ice and deep water. Residents gather for seasonal events that celebrate the bounty of the outdoors, finding beauty in the way the twilight deepens over the lake, turning the surface into a sheet of polished iron before the stars emerge.

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 Kenora 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.
