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 Isurtuup Sijjaapingit.
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.

Isurtuup Sijjaapingit is a locality in Rivière-Koksoak; Nord-du-Québec, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a town. Isurtuup Sijjaapingit is located at 59.7944°N, 69.8456°W.
Isurtuup Sijjaapingit stands as a stark, rugged presence within the Colline Utarqiuvik, characterized by a terrain that yields to the persistent press of northern winds and the slow, deep freeze of the Canadian subarctic. It lies 26.9 km south-south-east of Kangirsuk, QC (from Kangirsuk, QC: bearing 158°T), and is situated 15.6 km west-north-west of Nannuit. The land here is defined by a profound, hollow silence that settles over the stones and stunted growth, broken only by the thin, sharp call of the wind moving across the Colline Utarqiuvik. Just one kilometer away, the surface of Lac Isurtuq holds a mirror to the bruised colors of the evening sky, reflecting a light that seems to linger longer than it should in these latitudes. Further out, the Rivière Brochant carves its way through the landscape, providing a restless movement that contrasts with the stillness of the surrounding rock. Isurtuup Sijjaapingit exists in a state of quiet endurance, where the texture of the lichen and the jagged edges of the earth suggest a world that has long held its own council against the elements. The people who move through this expanse carry an awareness of the vast, open horizon, living in a rhythm dictated by the changing quality of the light and the biting, clean scent of frost that defines the northern air.
Isurtuup Sijjaapingit se déploie sur les pentes austères de la Colline Utarqiuvik, là où le ciel arctique semble s'abaisser pour toucher la terre dépouillée de tout artifice. Dans cette immensité nordique, la lumière déclinante du crépuscule nimbe les reliefs d'une clarté opaline, révélant la texture minérale du sol qui s'étire vers l'horizon infini. À peine distant d'un kilomètre, le Lac Isurtuq conserve en ses eaux sombres le silence minéral des âges, tandis que la Rivière Brochant serpente à huit kilomètres de là, traçant un sillon d'argent dans la toundra silencieuse. L'existence à Isurtuup Sijjaapingit se mesure au souffle du vent qui balaie les roches, rappelant aux rares passants la présence constante des traditions autochtones liées à ces terres ancestrales. Ici, les jours ne s'écoulent pas avec l'agitation des cités, mais s'imposent par la force tranquille du climat et la rigueur d'un terrain qui refuse la complaisance. Chaque pierre de la Colline Utarqiuvik, chaque bruissement près du Lac Isurtuq, murmure l'histoire d'un peuple qui habite ce lieu avec une patience souveraine, trouvant dans la rudesse du climat une forme de beauté dépouillée, presque éthérée, qui demeure étrangère aux yeux distraits.

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.
