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 Qimirlugaaq.
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.

Qimirlugaaq is a locality in Baie-d'Hudson; Nord-du-Québec, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Qimirlugaaq is located at 62.0811°N, 78.1433°W.
Qimirlugaaq rests as a stark, enduring presence along the rugged expanse of the St. Lawrence coastline. It lies 39.1 km south-south-west of Ivujivik, QC (from Ivujivik, QC: bearing 198°T), and is situated 26.7 km north-west of Sitiit Siqinirsiq. The terrain surrounding Qimirlugaaq rises toward the nearby Colline Kanaarvalik, where the earth holds a stillness that seems to sharpen the clarity of the northern light. During the brief, intense clarity of the golden hour, the wind carries a crispness that suggests the vast, cold reach of the land, while the Rivière Kuugaq flows nine kilometers away, carving a persistent path through the stone. This landscape demands a quiet vigilance, as the shifts in shadow across the Colline Kanaarvalik mark the passage of days in a region defined by its elemental, unyielding character. The history of Qimirlugaaq persists in the resilience of those who navigate its isolated reaches, finding purpose in the seasonal cycles that govern the north. Local life maintains a focus on traditional harvests and the careful stewardship of the land, where the scarcity of resources has long dictated a philosophy of profound resourcefulness. The proximity to the St. Lawrence provides a constant, deep-toned reminder of the sea’s influence on local survival, grounding the daily activities of the people in the reality of the tides. Whether preparing for the long winter or observing the brief bloom of the tundra, Qimirlugaaq operates with a measured intentionality, honoring an Indigenous heritage that remains vital to the identity of the region.
Qimirlugaaq s'étire le long des rives du Saint-Laurent, là où la terre semble retenir son souffle devant l'immensité des eaux froides. La Colline Kanaarvalik domine les alentours, offrant une vigie minérale à ce territoire qui défie les vents du Nord par sa rudesse dépouillée. À neuf kilomètres de distance, la Rivière Kuugaq trace son sillage discret, apportant une humeur changeante au paysage par ses eaux qui serpentent entre les rochers. Le crépuscule transforme alors Qimirlugaaq en une silhouette sombre, baignée dans une clarté bleutée qui souligne la texture granuleuse du sol et la persistance des traditions inuites façonnant chaque geste quotidien. Ici, le silence n'est jamais vide, il porte les échos des ancêtres et le murmure des marées qui battent contre la grève avec une régularité inflexible. Les habitants connaissent cette lumière rasante, celle qui révèle les aspérités de la Colline Kanaarvalik et confère aux modestes constructions une dignité austère. Dans cette contrée isolée, la vie suit le rythme imposé par les éléments, dans une harmonie rigoureuse où chaque saison impose sa loi, forgeant un caractère tenace chez ceux qui ont choisi de rester sur ces rivages, face au souffle du large qui ne cesse jamais tout à fait de parler.
