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 Sitiit Akianittuit.
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.

Sitiit Akianittuit is a locality in Baie-d'Hudson; Nord-du-Québec, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Sitiit Akianittuit is located at 61.9211°N, 77.7897°W.
Sitiit Akianittuit rests upon the austere, expansive tundra of the north, a landscape defined by its stark resilience and the long, pale light that clings to the horizon. It lies 55.5 km south of Ivujivik, QC (from Ivujivik, QC: bearing 173°T), and is situated 1.7 km north of Sitiit Siqinirsiq. The terrain surrounding Sitiit Akianittuit rises toward the Colline Nammagiaq, where the land holds a stillness that feels as old as the shifting light itself. To the east, the silence of the barrens is punctuated only by the presence of Lac Ivitaaqqut, a body of water that mirrors the vast, indifferent sky. Further out, the Rivière Nammagiap carves a subtle path through the permafrost, its movement a quiet persistence against the chill of the region. The air here carries a sharp, metallic clarity, often biting, which forces a certain attentiveness to the way the sun warms the stone and moss during the brief, high-latitude summer. Indigenous heritage forms the bedrock of life in Sitiit Akianittuit, where traditional knowledge continues to inform the survival and seasonal cycles of those who call this expanse home. The local economy persists through a careful balance of land-based activities and the small-scale commerce necessary for modern northern existence. Daily life in Sitiit Akianittuit moves with a deliberate, measured pace, dictated by the sudden shifts in weather and the deep, enduring cold that settles over the ground for much of the year. When the wind drops, the land seems to hold its breath, offering a profound sense of isolation that is at once humbling and remarkably clear.
Sitiit Akianittuit s’étire sous un ciel immense, là où la terre dénudée rencontre le souffle salin de la Baie-d'Hudson. Le regard porte loin sur cette étendue minérale, dominée par la présence tutélaire de la Colline Nammagiaq qui semble veiller sur les déplacements des hommes et des bêtes. À quelques kilomètres, les eaux du Lac Ivitaaqqut miroitent sous une lumière oblique, capturant les nuances changeantes du crépuscule qui étire les ombres des roches anciennes. Plus loin encore, la Rivière Nammagiap trace son sillon vers l’horizon, rappelant la permanence des cycles naturels dans ce Nord-du-Québec austère et magnifique. Sitiit Akianittuit porte en elle la mémoire des savoirs ancestraux, ceux qui permettent de lire le givre sur les parois et de comprendre le silence des étendues glacées. La vie ici ne cherche pas à dompter le terrain, mais s’y ajuste avec une patience héritée des générations passées, trouvant dans la rudesse du climat une forme de noblesse quotidienne. Chaque vent qui dévale les pentes transporte les échos d’une culture profondément liée à cette géographie exigeante, où le moindre changement dans la clarté de l'air indique le passage des heures et la nécessité d'avancer avec respect dans ce monde de pierre et d'eau.
