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 Uhakakatshihip.
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.

Uhakakatshihip is a locality in Côte-Nord-du-Golfe-du-Saint-Laurent; Le Golfe-du-Saint-Laurent, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a town. Uhakakatshihip is located at 50.1928°N, 60.6139°W.
Uhakakatshihip rests along the rugged, wind-scoured shoreline of the St. Lawrence, where the reach of the tide meets the resilient stone of the Crête Barren. It lies 107.6 km west-south-west of Tête-à-la-Baleine, QC (from Tête-à-la-Baleine, QC: bearing 239°T), and is situated 5.1 km east-south-east of La Romaine. The landscape here demands a certain patience, defined by the stark brilliance of subarctic light that turns the water to hammered silver during the long, lingering dusks. Inland, the terrain rises into rocky outcrops and dense, low-growing conifers, while the Rivière Olomane maintains its steady, cold passage just five kilometers away. Lac Pachot sits further back in the hinterland, a quiet basin tucked into the folds of the earth some fourteen kilometers from the coast, holding the stillness of the north within its deep, dark margins. Life at Uhakakatshihip follows the seasonal shifts of the gulf, shaped by an ancestral connection to the coast that precedes modern mapping. The local economy relies on the harvest of the sea, an occupation that keeps the inhabitants attuned to the temperament of the currents and the migration of the fish. Traditions here are kept close, passed down through generations who have learned to thrive in a climate that offers little in the way of compromise. The air at Uhakakatshihip often carries the sharp, clean scent of salt and crushed spruce, a reminder of the vast, unyielding wilderness that presses against the edges of human settlement. Here, the passage of a day is marked not by the clock, but by the turning of the tide and the shifting shadows that stretch across the barrens as night descends.
Uhakakatshihip s’étire le long des rives vastes du Saint-Laurent, là où le froid sculpte une terre austère et magnifique, dominée par la présence minérale de la Crête Barren. La lumière du crépuscule y dépose une teinte nacrée sur les eaux, révélant la rudesse d’un horizon qui ne concède rien à la douceur. À quelques kilomètres, la Rivière Olomane poursuit son cours immuable vers l’estuaire, charriant une mémoire ancienne dans son sillage sauvage, tandis que le Lac Pachot sommeille plus loin dans les terres, miroir immobile d’un ciel souvent traversé par les vents salins. L’existence à Uhakakatshihip se définit par ce dialogue incessant avec l’immensité maritime, un rythme dicté par les marées et le souffle ininterrompu du large qui façonne le caractère de ses habitants. Ici, chaque geste quotidien s’ajuste à la géographie rigoureuse de la Côte-Nord, dans un silence qui n’est jamais vide mais chargé de la présence des éléments. Cette terre, marquée par une histoire autochtone profonde, impose son autorité par ses contrastes saisissants entre la roche nue de la Crête Barren et la fluidité des courants qui bordent le rivage, offrant aux rares visiteurs la mesure exacte d’une solitude habitée et fière.

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.
