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 Cape Hopes Advance.
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.

Cape Hopes Advance is a locality in Rivière-Koksoak; Nord-du-Québec, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a town. Cape Hopes Advance is located at 61.0767°N, 69.5556°W.
Cape Hopes Advance stands as a stark, rugged sentinel perched along the St. Lawrence, where the land yields to the persistent influence of the north. It lies 5.8 km north-east of Quaqtaq, QC (from Quaqtaq, QC: bearing 34°T), and is situated 4.6 km north-east of Igissivik. The terrain here is defined by the Colline Qitiraijuq, which rises in silent, weathered relief above the surrounding expanse. Just a short distance from the water’s edge, the quiet presence of Lac Iqalugalik offers a reflective stillness to the tundra, while the Rivière Kangirsualuup carves its path through the terrain about 7 km away. During the brief, intense clarity of the northern summer, the light lingers long against the stone, turning the crags of the Colline Qitiraijuq into silhouettes of deep violet against a pale, bruised horizon. Cape Hopes Advance endures in a climate where the wind possesses a physical weight, shaping the sparse vegetation and dictating the movements of those who dwell within its reach. Life in Cape Hopes Advance persists through a legacy of self-reliance, deeply connected to the seasonal shifts of the coastal environment. The economy reflects a traditional relationship with the land and the surrounding waters, prioritizing the harvest and the careful stewardship of local resources. Knowledge of the terrain, from the hidden banks of the Rivière Kangirsualuup to the sheltered hollows near Lac Iqalugalik, is passed through generations as a matter of survival and identity. The air carries a crisp, metallic bite that sharpens the senses, demanding an alertness that defines the character of the region. Even in the quietest hours, the environment asserts its authority, ensuring that every activity is performed with a deliberate, measured respect for the elements.
Cape Hopes Advance s'étire sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où la terre dénudée de la Colline Qitiraijuq semble retenir son souffle devant l'immensité grise des eaux. Le vent y circule avec une franchise qui dépouille les pensées, balayant les roches et la toundra rase sous un ciel dont la clarté, au crépuscule, prend une teinte d'acier froid. À proximité, le calme du Lac Iqalugalik offre une halte paisible à la lumière déclinante, tandis que la Rivière Kangirsualuup poursuit sa course obstinée à sept kilomètres de là, marquant le terrain de son sillon silencieux. L'existence à Cape Hopes Advance se mesure à la patience des marées et au rythme lent des éléments qui façonnent ce relief austère. Les traditions inuites habitent toujours ce sol, portées par une mémoire orale qui survit à la rudesse du climat et à l'isolement géographique. Ici, chaque pierre de la Colline Qitiraijuq possède une présence tangible, une vérité brute qui se manifeste sans artifice. Les habitants observent les mouvements de la faune et les caprices du Saint-Laurent avec une attention quotidienne, transformant la survie en une forme de dialogue silencieux avec un monde vaste, indifférent et pourtant souverainement beau.
