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 Arqutikutaap 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.

Arqutikutaap Sijjangit is a locality in Rivière-Koksoak; Nord-du-Québec, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Arqutikutaap Sijjangit is located at 59.5711°N, 71.0880°W.
The vast, subarctic expanse of the North holds Arqutikutaap Sijjangit within a landscape defined by the persistent cold and the raw, unyielding reach of the tundra. It lies 77.4 km south-west of Kangirsuk, QC (from Kangirsuk, QC: bearing 230°T), and is situated 46.3 km south-east of Sijjait. The Rivière Arqutikutaap Kuunga carves a path through this austere terrain, its waters moving with a quiet, icy clarity that mirrors the pale brilliance of the northern sky. During the long hours of dusk, the light stretches thin and silver across the land, casting deep shadows that sharpen the contours of the stone and scrub. While Lac Peters sits thirteen kilometers away, its presence is felt in the way the wind carries the scent of distant, frozen depths across the open ground. Arqutikutaap Sijjangit exists as a singular point of endurance, where the stillness of the earth is matched only by the biting, clean sharpness of the air that settles over the region. Generations of Indigenous knowledge inform the way life persists here, grounding the daily activities of the people in an intimate understanding of the shifting seasons and the migratory patterns of the land. The economy remains defined by these traditional practices, relying on the careful harvest of what the Rivière Arqutikutaap Kuunga and the surrounding wilderness provide. There is a profound economy of movement in how the day unfolds, a focus on the essential tasks required to thrive in a climate that demands constant vigilance. Arqutikutaap Sijjangit reflects a heritage of resilience, where the quietude of the horizon serves as a daily reminder of the scale of the world and the importance of those who call such a remote stretch of the north their home.
Arqutikutaap Sijjangit s'étire avec une patience minérale sur les rives de la Rivière Arqutikutaap Kuunga, là où le souffle du Nord sculpte le relief avec une rigueur austère. Sous la lumière oblique du crépuscule, le terrain révèle une austérité magnifique, faite de roches anciennes et de toundra qui semble retenir le silence des âges. À treize kilomètres de là, le Lac Peters repose dans une immobilité glacée, agissant comme un miroir sombre pour les cieux changeants de la région de Rivière-Koksoak. La vie à Arqutikutaap Sijjangit suit le rythme des éléments, portée par le courant de la Rivière Arqutikutaap Kuunga qui dicte ses exigences aux habitants, héritiers d'une sagesse transmise par le contact direct avec cette terre exigeante. Ici, la modernité se fait discrète, s'effaçant devant l'immensité de l'horizon et la texture rugueuse du sol qui résiste aux assauts du gel. Le vent qui balaie la toundra porte en lui le souvenir de traditions ancestrales, veillant sur ceux qui habitent ces contrées reculées. Dans cette solitude partagée, Arqutikutaap Sijjangit demeure un point de repère essentiel, une présence humaine qui s'affirme sans bruit contre l'infini blanc et gris du Nord-du-Québec.
