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 Sijjatalik.
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.

Sijjatalik is a locality in Baie-d'Hudson; Nord-du-Québec, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a small locality. Sijjatalik is located at 62.2572°N, 77.3956°W.
Sijjatalik holds its own against the vast, unrelenting expanse of the northern tundra, where the earth yields only to the persistent pressure of frost and wind. It lies 32.2 km east-south-east of Ivujivik, QC (from Ivujivik, QC: bearing 123°T), and is situated 44.2 km north-north-east of Sitiit Siqinirsiq. The land surrounding Sijjatalik is defined by the rugged, ancient presence of the Collines Uummanaapiik, whose slopes capture the low-slung Arctic sun to cast long, violet shadows across the barrens. In the quiet hours of the morning, the air possesses a sharp, metallic clarity that makes the distant, shimmering surface of Lac Sijjakutaaq seem closer than it truly is. The terrain here resists the softening influence of vegetation, preferring the raw honesty of lichen-covered stone and the stark, open horizons that demand a keen eye for subtle shifts in color. Even as the light fades, the landscape retains a crystalline stillness, a cold patience that defines the character of the terrain. Life in Sijjatalik persists through a deep inheritance of knowledge, passed down through generations who have learned to navigate the movements of the seasons and the demands of the land. The proximity of the Rivière Kuup Akullipaap Sanirqamatinga provides a vital artery for the region, serving as a reminder of the historical patterns of movement that have always guided those who call this northern reach home. Traditional practices remain the bedrock of daily life, grounding the people in a cycle of harvesting and stewardship that honors the heritage of the territory. While the pace of the modern world occasionally flickers at the edges, Sijjatalik finds its strength in the enduring silence of the north and the quiet, deliberate work of those who sustain themselves upon this bedrock.
Sijjatalik s’étire sur le sol minéral du Nord-du-Québec, là où la terre dénudée rencontre un ciel immense qui semble peser sur les épaules des hommes. À l’horizon, les Collines Uummanaapiik dessinent une ligne sombre et accidentée, protégeant cette étendue sauvage des vents glaciaux qui balayent la toundra. La lumière du crépuscule s’y attarde longuement, teintant les roches d’un éclat cuivré qui rappelle la ténacité de ceux ayant choisi d’habiter ces confins. Non loin, les eaux du Lac Sijjakutaaq dorment sous une pellicule de glace ou s’agitent sous les bourrasques, tandis que la Rivière Kuup Akullipaap Sanirqamatinga serpente à travers le relief, traçant un sillon d’argent dans la solitude du paysage. Sijjatalik vit au rythme des glaces et des migrations, portée par une culture inuite qui puise sa force dans la sobriété des gestes et la connaissance intime de ce territoire austère. Chaque maison, posée sur le pergélisol, résiste à l’assaut des éléments, affirmant la présence humaine par-delà les caprices du climat. Ici, le silence n’est jamais vide ; il est habité par la respiration du vent et le souvenir des ancêtres qui connaissaient chaque repli de ces terres, faisant de Sijjatalik un poste de vigilance posé face à l’immensité arctique.

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.
