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 Qarqamarik.
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.

Qarqamarik is a locality in Baie-d'Hudson; Nord-du-Québec, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Qarqamarik is located at 62.1481°N, 78.1306°W.
Qarqamarik holds a stoic vigil upon the shores of the St. Lawrence, where the wind carries the sharp, salt-bitten clarity of the north. It lies 31.9 km south-south-west of Ivujivik, QC (from Ivujivik, QC: bearing 200°T), and is situated 32.1 km north-north-west of Sitiit Siqinirsiq. The land here rises in the weathered knuckles of the Collines Ungirruilitait, providing a stark backdrop to the persistent flow of the Rivière Kuugaq as it carves its way toward the sea. When the light leans low at dusk, the granite ridges catch a pale, bruised violet hue, grounding the horizon in a silence that feels older than the dwellings themselves. Roughly 11 km away, the surface of Lac Qarliik Qulirsilirqinga mirrors the vast, unblinking sky, marking the wilder reaches of the terrain that define the limits of human passage. Life in Qarqamarik persists through a keen awareness of the seasonal pulse, where the movement of water and the shift of ice dictate the boundaries of the day. The local economy and daily existence rely upon a deep-seated knowledge of the land, drawing from generations who understood how to navigate the coastal edges and the inland waterways with equal precision. Traditions here are kept in the quiet maintenance of equipment and the careful observation of the tides, reflecting a heritage that values endurance over excess. Qarqamarik remains a point of stillness, a cluster of lives held firm against the expansive, cooling air that flows down from the high latitudes.
Qarqamarik s'étire avec une austérité solennelle sur les rives du Saint-Laurent, là où le vent sculpte le visage de la terre nordique avec une persévérance silencieuse. La lumière, lors des crépuscules prolongés, dépose sur les Collines Ungirruilitait une teinte cuivrée qui semble suspendre le souffle du monde. Le murmure de la Rivière Kuugaq accompagne le rythme des jours, charriant les souvenirs d'un peuple dont la mémoire est indissociable de l'immensité minérale environnante. À onze kilomètres de là, le Lac Qarliik Qulirsilirqinga dort sous une chape de silence, miroir immobile d'un ciel immense qui ne connaît guère de limites. La rudesse du climat forge une existence où chaque geste quotidien se plie à la volonté des éléments, imposant une sobriété nécessaire face à l'étendue sauvage. Qarqamarik se dresse comme une sentinelle, habitée par une ténacité héritée des générations qui ont appris à lire les signes des marées et les caprices du givre sur les rochers. Ici, la vie ne se raconte pas dans le bruit, mais dans l'observation attentive des changements de texture de la toundra et dans la fidélité aux gestes ancestraux qui assurent la survie sous le regard froid des hautes latitudes.

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.
