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 Istuyakamikw.
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.

Istuyakamikw is a locality in Baie-d'Hudson; Nord-du-Québec, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a town. Istuyakamikw is located at 55.9675°N, 75.2428°W.
Istuyakamikw rests within the vast, quiet expanse of the northern interior, defined by a landscape that yields slowly to the elements. It lies 103.7 km south-east of Umiujaq, QC (from Umiujaq, QC: bearing 128°T), and is situated 27.0 km east of Apamitaukasich. The terrain surrounding Istuyakamikw rises toward the Colline Apamitaukasich, where the wind carries a sharp, clean clarity that seems to sharpen the edges of the horizon. Nearby, the Rivière De Troyes cuts a path through the ancient, resistant rock, its waters moving with a persistent, frigid gravity that dictates the pace of the surrounding wild. Eleven kilometers away, the stillness of Lac Costen provides a calm counterpoint to the movement of the river, reflecting a sky that often feels closer here than anywhere else. During the long hours of twilight, the light across the tundra takes on a bruised, violet hue, grounding the earth in a profound and heavy silence. Indigenous heritage informs the character of Istuyakamikw, where the land is understood not as a commodity but as a presence that requires careful observation. The economy here remains rooted in the traditional rhythms of the north, relying on the seasonal cycles that govern the movement of wildlife and the accessibility of the waterways. Life in Istuyakamikw follows the demands of a climate that permits little waste, favoring endurance and a deep, practical knowledge of the terrain. Residents move with an awareness of the environment, respecting the way the Rivière De Troyes and the nearby Colline Apamitaukasich shape the possibilities of the day.
Istuyakamikw se déploie dans une étendue sauvage où le ciel semble peser de tout son poids sur la terre minérale. La lumière du crépuscule y étire des ombres longues sur les roches, tandis que les eaux de la Rivière De Troyes s'écoulent dans un murmure discret, charriant les souvenirs d'une terre habitée depuis longtemps par les peuples du Nord. À proximité, la Colline Apamitaukasich dresse sa silhouette familière au-dessus de l'horizon, veillant sur les terres basses où le vent se fait parfois insistant. Le Lac Costen, situé à une distance respectueuse, offre une étendue miroitante qui capte les dernières lueurs du jour avant que l'obscurité n'enveloppe le paysage. Dans le silence de ces vastes étendues, Istuyakamikw affirme une existence modeste, façonnée par les exigences d'un climat qui ne pardonne guère. Les traditions locales y persistent comme une respiration lente, dictée par la présence de cette nature indomptable qui impose son rythme aux activités humaines. Ici, la rudesse du sol et la clarté de l'air créent une atmosphère singulière, dépouillée de tout superflu, où chaque élément géographique devient un repère vital pour ceux qui connaissent le langage des terres du Nord-du-Québec.
