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 Ipiutaq.
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.

Ipiutaq is a locality in Rivière-Koksoak; Nord-du-Québec, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a town. Ipiutaq is located at 60.8522°N, 69.8731°W.
Ipiutaq rests upon the stark, enduring reach of the St. Lawrence, defined by the rugged character of the Colline Niaqunnguutiarusik. It lies 24.4 km south-west of Quaqtaq, QC (from Quaqtaq, QC: bearing 215°T), and is situated 13.7 km west-south-west of Sirmisarniavik. The land here holds the quiet weight of the north, where the light at dusk stretches thin and pale across the tundra, turning the earth into a vast, muted canvas that seems to breathe with the coming frost. To the west, the waters of Lac Auksiivik lie still and glass-like, mirroring the expansive sky, while the Rivière Tasiqajuirutiup carves a deliberate path through the terrain some 6 km away. This is a country of immense scale, where the wind carries the scent of stone and cold water, and the horizon demands a steady, watchful patience from those who move across its face. History lingers in the way the local people navigate the seasonal shifts, respecting the ancient rhythms of a landscape that has long sustained those who know its secrets. The economy of Ipiutaq remains closely tied to the land and the surrounding waters, reflecting a heritage built on persistence and the quiet ingenuity required to thrive in such a demanding climate. Daily life here is marked by the careful tending of resources and a deep, unspoken familiarity with the temperaments of the Colline Niaqunnguutiarusik. Whether the air is sharp with the bite of winter or softened by the brief, intense sun of the solstice, Ipiutaq endures as a distinct point of human presence held within the vast, unyielding reach of the Canadian north.
Ipiutaq se dresse avec une austérité tranquille sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le relief s'incline doucement vers la Colline Niaqunnguutiarusik. Dans cette étendue septentrionale, la lumière déclinante du crépuscule étire les ombres sur le sol pierreux, conférant une noblesse silencieuse aux modestes structures qui composent Ipiutaq. À trois kilomètres de là, le Lac Auksiivik capte les derniers rayons du jour dans ses eaux froides et immobiles, tandis que le murmure lointain de la Rivière Tasiqajuirutiup, située à six kilomètres, ponctue le souffle constant d'un vent qui semble vouloir sculpter chaque roche. La vie ici exige une patience particulière, une manière de s'accorder au rythme lent des éléments et à l'isolement géographique qui définit ce territoire du Nord-du-Québec. Les traditions locales, forgées par la proximité avec une nature indomptable, persistent avec une ténacité qui ne cherche pas à se faire remarquer. La terre, dépouillée de tout superflu, impose une humilité que les habitants reconnaissent dans les gestes quotidiens de subsistance et de partage. Entre la minéralité de la Colline Niaqunnguutiarusik et la présence apaisante du Lac Auksiivik, le quotidien se déploie sans artifice, dans une solitude qui devient, pour celui qui sait observer, une forme rare de plénitude.

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.
