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 Anurituuq.
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.

Anurituuq is a locality in Baie-d'Hudson; Nord-du-Québec, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Anurituuq is located at 61.5372°N, 75.8392°W.
Anurituuq rests amidst the vast, enduring stillness of the northern tundra, where the horizon stretches thin and sharp against the Arctic sky. It lies 74.4 km south of Salluit, QC (from Salluit, QC: bearing 188°T), and is situated 9.9 km east-north-east of Illuvinirtalik. The land here is defined by the rugged presence of the Coteau Majurqaq, a silent sentinel that overlooks the low-lying plains. Nearby, the clear expanse of Lac Qimiujait Tasingat sits only 1 km away, its surface often mirroring the pale, lingering light of the long northern days. Further out, the Rivière Kuuruq winds its way through the terrain about 9 km distant, carving a path through the frozen earth that has persisted for generations. The air in Anurituuq carries a crisp, mineral bite, bracing and clean, reminding all who walk here of the immense, unyielding space that defines the Nord-du-Québec landscape. The history of Anurituuq is rooted in the resilience of those who have navigated these remote reaches, maintaining a deep connection to the seasonal shifts of the land. Daily life in Anurituuq follows the quiet demands of the environment, where the traditional practices of hunting and gathering continue to shape the local culture and sustain the people. While the modern world touches the edges of this northern geography, the spirit of the settlement remains focused on the knowledge passed down by ancestors who understood the temperament of the ice and the wind. Visitors and residents alike observe how the light shifts across the Coteau Majurqaq, turning the stone hues of grey and brown into soft, bruised purples as the evening deepens. This persistence of heritage, combined with the stark beauty of the surrounding waters and hills, creates a singular existence that prioritizes endurance and quiet observation over the noise of distant urban centers.
Anurituuq s’étire dans une solitude minérale où la lumière du soir semble stagner sur les roches, conférant au paysage une profondeur singulière. À proximité immédiate, la silhouette du Coteau Majurqaq domine l’horizon, imposant sa masse sombre sur une étendue qui ne connaît guère le tumulte des hommes. Le Lac Qimiujait Tasingat, situé à une lieue de là, offre une surface miroitante qui capte les derniers éclats du ciel, tandis que la Rivière Kuuruq poursuit son cheminement à neuf kilomètres, serpentant avec une régularité ancestrale dans ce vaste Nord. Anurituuq porte en elle la rigueur d’un climat exigeant, où chaque souffle d’air rappelle la proximité de la baie d’Hudson. Ici, les traditions inuites se maintiennent par une observation attentive des cycles naturels et une connaissance intime du terrain. Le sol, marqué par le passage des vents, impose une existence dépouillée de tout artifice, une vie simple qui s’accorde au rythme des éléments. La terre, loin des agitations, conserve une noblesse brute et une immensité qui, chaque jour, redéfinissent la notion de silence. Les habitants, observateurs patients, trouvent dans cette géographie austère une forme de stabilité, un équilibre fragile et magnifique qui définit la réalité quotidienne de ce territoire.
