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 La Mine-Copper Cliff.
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.

La Mine-Copper Cliff is a locality in Chibougamau; Nord-du-Québec, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. La Mine-Copper Cliff is located at 49.9003°N, 74.3025°W.
La Mine-Copper Cliff rests with a quiet, mineral weight upon the shore of Lac Chibougamau, finding its form within the rugged rise of the Colline de la Sidérite. It lies 4.9 km east-south-east of Chibougamau, QC (from Chibougamau, QC: bearing 107°T), and is situated 18.1 km north-north-west of La Mine-Corner Bay. The air here holds a crisp, metallic edge, often carrying the scent of damp pine and stone as the light fades into a bruised purple over the water. While the Rivière Chibougamau flows some distance away, the immediate terrain of La Mine-Copper Cliff remains defined by the deliberate, imposing architecture of industry that once carved its purpose from the earth. The local economy and history trace their lineage back to these extraction efforts, which left behind a landscape that feels both hollowed and enduring. Life at La Mine-Copper Cliff moves with a steady, pragmatic gravity, reflecting a northern resilience where the transition between the stillness of the woods and the remnants of the mine defines the character of the ground itself.
La Mine-Copper Cliff s'élève avec une rigueur minérale sur les rives du Lac Chibougamau, là où la terre semble retenir son souffle sous la pression des âges. Dans la Colline de la Sidérite, le sol porte les stigmates de ceux qui ont creusé le roc pour en extraire la richesse enfouie, transformant la rudesse du Nord-du-Québec en une existence de fer et de labeur. La lumière du crépuscule s'étire sur les escarpements, révélant une texture rocailleuse que la Rivière Chibougamau, distante de douze kilomètres, souligne par son murmure lointain dans la forêt boréale. Ce site conserve une mémoire ouvrière, une persistance qui résiste aux cycles de l'industrie, tandis que l'air vif du soir vient balayer les vestiges de l'activité humaine. Les habitants de La Mine-Copper Cliff entretiennent un rapport direct avec cette géographie austère, faite de roches anciennes et de vastes étendues d'eau, où le silence n'est interrompu que par le vent cinglant et les échos d'une histoire forgée dans la profondeur du sous-sol. Ici, la vie se mesure à l'aune de ce relief accidenté, une réalité physique qui impose sa loi, façonnant chaque geste quotidien dans la rudesse d'un horizon qui ne promet rien d'autre que la vérité brute du terrain.

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.
Location data for La Mine-Copper Cliff is sourced from the Canadian Geographical Names Database (CGN), Natural Resources Canada, and verified by coordinates rather than name matching alone. GPS coordinates, province, administrative location and place type are shown in the information panel above.
