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 Ippialuit.
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.

Ippialuit is a locality in Baie-d'Hudson; Nord-du-Québec, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a town. Ippialuit is located at 61.7861°N, 74.7667°W.
Ippialuit occupies a stark, ancient expanse within the Coteau Tiriranniatuuq, where the horizon stretches flat and uncompromising under a sky that seems to hold the weight of the north. It lies 65.2 km south-east of Salluit, QC (from Salluit, QC: bearing 135°T), and is situated 37.3 km south-south-west of Déception. The land surrounding Ippialuit feels held in a permanent, crisp suspension, defined by the proximity of Lac Ippialuit Tasinga, a mere kilometer away, whose surface mirrors the low, shifting light of the arctic sun. Further out, the Rivière Ombilic carves a path through the tundra some 15 kilometers distant, while the distant roar of Chutes Kuuqqusaq echoes faintly 19 kilometers away, a reminder of the water’s persistent work upon the bedrock. In the cool air of dusk, the terrain takes on a bruised, violet hue, grounding the observer in a geography that demands both patience and respect for its elemental solitude. Life in Ippialuit persists through a quiet adherence to traditions that have long defined the people of the Baie-d'Hudson region. The local economy and daily patterns reflect a deep, ancestral connection to the land, where the harvest of the season dictates the movement of the day. Knowledge of the terrain is passed down with a precision that mirrors the clarity of the surrounding air, ensuring that the heritage of the region remains vital and present. Even as the seasons turn, the residents maintain a steady, purposeful pace, finding a particular beauty in the resilience required to thrive where the wind constantly shapes the snow and the silence of the Coteau Tiriranniatuuq settles over the land.
Ippialuit se déploie sur les terres austères du Coteau Tiriranniatuuq, là où le vent sculpte une toundra dépouillée de tout artifice. Sous la lumière oblique du crépuscule, le terrain révèle une minéralité brute, façonnée par des millénaires de gel et de dégel. Le Lac Ippialuit Tasinga, situé à peine à un kilomètre, semble retenir le ciel dans ses eaux sombres, miroir immobile d'une immensité silencieuse qui impose le respect. À quinze kilomètres, la Rivière Ombilic serpente avec une lenteur minérale, tandis que le fracas lointain des Chutes Kuuqqusaq, à dix-neuf kilomètres, ponctue le calme plat des étendues septentrionales. Ippialuit porte en elle la mémoire vive des traditions inuites, une existence rythmée par la rigueur du climat et la connaissance intime de la faune sauvage. Ici, le quotidien se mesure à la patience du chasseur et à la résilience des familles qui ont appris à habiter ce dénuement sublime. La terre, loin d'être hostile, devient une compagne exigeante mais familière pour ceux qui foulent ces roches anciennes. Rien ne trouble la sérénité de cet horizon arctique, sinon le passage des saisons qui transforme, avec une précision implacable, la texture même de la toundra sous un ciel d'une clarté tranchante.

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.
