How to Use This Puijinniavik, Quebec Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Puijinniavik, Quebec. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture to zoom in and out.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen for a larger view. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key on your keyboard, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

Drag the map to pan to any area of Quebec or beyond. Switch to Satellite view to see high-resolution aerial photography of Puijinniavik and surrounding areas, including streets, buildings, parks and waterways.

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 Puijinniavik.

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.

About Puijinniavik, Quebec

Puijinniavik is a locality in Rivière-Koksoak; Nord-du-Québec, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Puijinniavik is located at 60.3553°N, 64.6997°W.

Puijinniavik rests along the rugged margins of the St. Lawrence, where the land yields to a stark, expansive horizon near the slopes of the Button Hill. It lies 197.7 km north-north-east of Kangiqsualujjuaq, QC (from Kangiqsualujjuaq, QC: bearing 20°T). The air here holds a sharp, clean clarity that intensifies the low-slanting light of the northern dusk, turning the exposed rock into a bruised violet. Inland, the terrain reaches toward Lac Qikirtakallait Iqallivik, which sits eleven kilometers away, its surface often mirroring the pale, unblinking sky of the high north. In the quiet reaches of Rivière-Koksoak, the life of Puijinniavik is shaped by the cold, enduring persistence of the environment, where the wind carries the scent of salt and ancient stone. The local economy and daily practices reflect a heritage deeply connected to the land and the harvesting of its resources, maintaining a tradition that values self-reliance and patience. Through the changing seasons, the people of Puijinniavik find their footing in a landscape that demands respect for its silence and its sudden, biting shifts in weather.

Puijinniavik s'étire le long des rives du Saint-Laurent dans une lumière de fin de jour qui semble suspendre le souffle des choses. À proximité, la colline Button impose sa silhouette minérale, veillant sur ce littoral où l'air porte une fraîcheur tranchante, chargée de sel et de silence. Le paysage déploie ses nuances froides tandis que, non loin de là, le lac Qikirtakallait Iqallivik attend, immobile sous le ciel immense du Nord-du-Québec. La vie à Puijinniavik se règle sur les marées et sur le mouvement lent de l'eau, une existence marquée par la permanence des roches et la simplicité austère des horizons. Ici, le lien avec le territoire se manifeste dans les gestes quotidiens des habitants qui connaissent chaque repli de la grève et la manière dont le vent sculpte le sol au pied de la colline. Rien ne trouble la quiétude de ces étendues, où la clarté du crépuscule révèle une beauté dépouillée, loin des agitations du monde. Puijinniavik demeure ce point de rencontre entre l'eau et la terre, un espace où la rigueur du climat façonne une identité forte, ancrée dans la patience nécessaire pour habiter ces marges du territoire.
