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 Aysiwataukach.
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.

Aysiwataukach is a locality in Baie-d'Hudson; Nord-du-Québec, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a town. Aysiwataukach is located at 55.0517°N, 75.5697°W.
Aysiwataukach occupies a stark, ancient expanse of the Canadian Shield, defined by the relentless northward surge of the Grande rivière de la Baleine. It lies 140.8 km east of Kuujjuarapik, QC (from Kuujjuarapik, QC: bearing 100°T), and is situated 14.5 km west-north-west of Anaukaskayach. The land here holds a profound stillness, where the low-angled sun of the subarctic turns the rocky terrain into a bruised palette of lichen-gray and deep, shadowed ochre. About 10 km away, the quiet surface of Lac Kanamapiyusi mirrors the vast, unpolluted sky, acting as a glass-still counterpoint to the restless energy of the nearby river. The air carries a crisp, metallic edge that sharpens the senses, highlighting the way light clings to the mossy outcrops long after the day has begun to fade. The history of Aysiwataukach is deeply rooted in the seasonal migrations and traditional land use of the Indigenous peoples who have navigated these waterways for generations. Life in Aysiwataukach aligns with the movements of the Grande rivière de la Baleine, an artery that has historically dictated the flow of trade and the viability of travel across the rugged terrain. Today, the economy remains focused on the careful stewardship of these natural resources, maintaining a connection to the cycles of the land that is both practical and enduring. The silence of the surrounding wilderness is occasionally broken by the muted hum of activity, yet the horizon remains dominated by the immense, indifferent beauty of the northern expanse.
Aysiwataukach s'étire le long des rives de Grande rivière de la Baleine, là où le vent du Nord sculpte un relief dépouillé, fait de roches anciennes et de lichens obstinés. Le ciel, immense et changeant, semble s'abaisser sur la toundra pour mieux épouser le silence qui règne sur ces étendues septentrionales. À une dizaine de kilomètres, le lac Kanamapiyusi repose dans une immobilité minérale, offrant aux rares voyageurs une étendue d'eau sombre qui capte les reflets changeants du crépuscule boréal. La vie à Aysiwataukach s'ordonne suivant les caprices de la lumière et les cycles ancestraux qui dictent les déplacements sur le territoire, une existence façonnée par la rudesse climatique et la proximité immédiate avec les éléments sauvages. Les gestes quotidiens ici conservent une simplicité rigoureuse, presque austère, héritée d'une connaissance intime des passages et des ressources que le sol offre avec parcimonie. En observant la course de Grande rivière de la Baleine vers la mer, il devient possible de saisir ce qui lie les habitants à cette terre austère, un rapport direct, sans détour, où chaque rocher et chaque inflexion du courant racontent une histoire de persistance et de respect profond envers l'immensité qui entoure tout.

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.
