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 Kâpimabikâk.
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.

Kâpimabikâk is a locality in Senneterre; La Vallée-de-l'Or, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a town. Kâpimabikâk is located at 48.5211°N, 76.1600°W.
Kâpimabikâk emerges from the dense, coniferous expanse of Senneterre as a singular point of confluence where the earth yields to the persistent passage of the Rivière Berthelot. It lies 81.0 km east of Senneterre, QC (from Senneterre, QC: bearing 79°T), and is situated 29.8 km north of Gagnon-Siding. The stillness of the afternoon air often carries the scent of damp moss and cold stone, a quiet presence that defines the character of this rugged terrain. Three kilometers away, the surface of Lac Drolet mirrors the changing sky, its depth providing a calm counterpoint to the movement of the nearby currents. The light at dusk here possesses a particular, sharp clarity, catching the edges of the forest and turning the horizon into a study of deep shadows and muted, iron-grey tones. The history of Kâpimabikâk is anchored in the traditional presence of Indigenous peoples who have long traversed these waterways, finding sustenance and passage within the boreal forest of La Vallée-de-l'Or. While the modern economy remains linked to the extraction and management of the surrounding timber, the daily life of the locality is marked by the patient maintenance of access routes and the enduring influence of the seasonal cycle. The sound of the Rivière Berthelot serves as a constant, low-frequency companion to those who work the land, reminding inhabitants that the environment dictates the pace of progress. Residents maintain a quiet respect for the wilderness, understanding that the bounty of the timber stands and the clarity of the water are the essential elements that define the identity of Kâpimabikâk.
Kâpimabikâk surgit dans le silence boréal de Senneterre, là où la terre semble retenir son souffle sous une lumière boréale qui étire les ombres sur les rives de la Rivière Berthelot. Le courant sombre de ce cours d'eau guide le regard vers l'horizon forestier, imposant une présence minérale et sauvage à ce territoire façonné par l'industrie forestière. À quelques kilomètres, le Lac Drolet étend sa surface calme, miroir glacé qui capte les dernières lueurs du crépuscule. L'air y est vif, chargé de l'odeur des résineux, rappelant aux rares visiteurs que la vie ici exige une patience forgée par la rigueur du climat. Les traditions locales, nourries par l'héritage des peuples autochtones qui ont nommé ces terres, imprègnent chaque sentier serpentant entre les conifères. Kâpimabikâk demeure une présence solitaire, une ponctuation habitée dans l'immensité québécoise, où les structures humaines se font discrètes face à la puissance des éléments. La vie quotidienne s'y écoule au rythme lent des saisons forestières, loin des agitations urbaines, dans une solitude qui devient, pour qui sait l'observer, une forme de beauté dépouillée. Chaque détail du paysage, depuis le lit de la Rivière Berthelot jusqu'aux approches du Lac Drolet, affirme une identité austère, profondément liée à la rudesse magnifique de cette nature indomptée.
