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 Aqiggiup Sijjangit.
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.

Aqiggiup Sijjangit is a locality in Rivière-Koksoak; Nord-du-Québec, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Aqiggiup Sijjangit is located at 60.7072°N, 70.2403°W.
Aqiggiup Sijjangit emerges from the subarctic tundra as a stark, weathered expanse defined by the proximity of the Coteau Aqiggisiti. It lies 49.5 km south-west of Quaqtaq, QC (from Quaqtaq, QC: bearing 223°T), and is situated 31.2 km west-north-west of Arqusiugaq. The land surrounding Aqiggiup Sijjangit holds a stillness that sharpens the senses, where the low-angled light of the northern sun catches the edges of moss and lichen, turning the barren earth into a shifting palette of ochre and slate. Eight kilometers to the east, the waters of the Rivière Isiuralittaalialuup Kuunga carve through the terrain with a cold, insistent clarity, while the mirrored surface of Lac Qamaniq rests nearby, reflecting a sky that feels closer here than anywhere else. During the brief, intense summer, the ground breathes, releasing the scent of damp peat and ancient stone, yet the air retains a metallic edge, a reminder of the permafrost waiting just beneath the surface. Life in this remote section of the Rivière-Koksoak region is defined by the profound autonomy of the landscape, where the seasonal cycles dictate the movement of those who traverse the wide, open plains. The history of Aqiggiup Sijjangit remains bound to the traditions of the Inuit, whose knowledge of the winds and the migration patterns of the land has sustained existence in this high latitude for generations. Today, the economy leans into a quiet, subsistence-based resilience, with local activities revolving around the stewardship of the land and the harvesting of resources that have supported families since long before the first maps were drawn. There is a particular honesty in the silence of the horizon, a lack of ornamentation that demands a deep, respectful attention from anyone who spends time under the vast, unblinking dome of the northern sky.
Aqiggiup Sijjangit s’étire dans une solitude minérale où le regard, porté par une lumière boréale déclinante, se perd sur les étendues sauvages du Nord-du-Québec. À proximité immédiate, le Coteau Aqiggisiti s’élève comme une sentinelle de roche froide, protégeant les terres basses des vents qui balaient la toundra avec une persistance mélancolique. L’air y possède une pureté tranchante, presque irréelle, qui semble suspendre le souffle des rares passants habitués à la rudesse de ce climat. À huit kilomètres de là, la Rivière Isiuralittaalialuup Kuunga serpente avec une lenteur majestueuse, offrant un ruban liquide à la terre, tandis que le Lac Qamaniq, situé à une distance similaire, miroite sous un ciel immense dont la clarté changeante modifie chaque instant la texture du paysage. Aqiggiup Sijjangit conserve cette noblesse austère propre aux contrées où la nature dicte ses lois sans concession. Ici, la vie se plie au rythme des éléments, célébrant une identité autochtone qui puise sa force dans la persistance du sol et le murmure des eaux. Les silences qui règnent sur ces plateaux rocheux sont habités par la mémoire des anciens, transformant chaque crépuscule en une méditation sur la permanence du monde face à l’éphémère des horizons lointains.

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.
