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 Kamikuapiskat.
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.

Kamikuapiskat is a locality in Longue-Pointe-de-Mingan; Minganie, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a town. Kamikuapiskat is located at 50.3239°N, 64.2478°W.
Kamikuapiskat rests along the rugged northern edge of the St. Lawrence, where the salt air meets the ancient, unyielding stone of the Canadian Shield. It lies 47.0 km west of Havre-Saint-Pierre, QC (from Havre-Saint-Pierre, QC: bearing 281°T), and is situated 9.6 km north-west of Longue-Pointe-de-Mingan. The light here possesses a singular, pearlescent clarity at dusk, casting long shadows across the Coteau Kapikuahenenant and turning the surface of the Rivière Saint-Jean into a vein of hammered silver. Inland, the terrain rises into wild, coniferous stillness, marked by the proximity of Lac Hatché, which rests like a dark, fallen mirror just five kilometers away. Further out, the roar of Chutes Kakahtshekaut carries through the thickets of spruce and fir, a reminder of the relentless movement of water through this landscape. Kamikuapiskat exists in a quiet dialogue with the tide, enduring the sharp bite of northern winters and the fleeting, intense bloom of the brief coastal summer. Generations have looked to the Rivière Saint-Jean and the surrounding wilderness for sustenance, finding a life defined by the harvest of the sea and the forest. The local economy persists through a deep knowledge of these waters, with the traditions of those who came before still evident in the way nets are mended and gear is prepared against the coming weather. Life in Kamikuapiskat moves in alignment with the shifting ice and the seasonal migrations, holding a resilience that mirrors the endurance of the surrounding rock. There is a profound honesty in the way the morning mist clings to the banks of the river, a cold, damp breath that settles over the shore before the sun fully clears the horizon.
Kamikuapiskat se déploie avec une humilité minérale sur les rives vastes du Saint-Laurent, là où le regard s’égare vers l’horizon marin sous une lumière qui semble suspendre le monde. À proximité du Coteau Kapikuahenenant, le sol se fait le complice d’une nature sobre, structurée par les méandres de la Rivière Saint-Jean dont le cours accompagne le quotidien des habitants. Dans les terres, le Lac Hatché repose dans un silence apaisé à quelques encablures, tandis que le fracas lointain des Chutes Kakahtshekaut rythme sourdement la respiration de la forêt boréale environnante. L’identité de Kamikuapiskat se forge dans cet équilibre fragile entre la puissance des marées et la patience des bois, héritière d’une présence autochtone qui a su lire, avant toute autre, les signes de ce relief exigeant. Les activités s’y déploient sans bruit, marquées par le respect des cycles naturels et la rudesse accueillante d’un climat qui sculpte les caractères autant que les rochers. Ici, le ciel bas et changeant descend sur les berges, enveloppant chaque demeure d’une clarté argentée, presque irréelle, qui donne aux heures une épaisseur singulière. La vie s’y écoule avec la lenteur des grandes eaux, portée par une mémoire qui se transmet dans le souffle du vent remontant la Rivière Saint-Jean, rappelant à chacun la nécessité de demeurer attentif à la beauté austère de ce territoire.
