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 Umingmaqautik.
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.

Umingmaqautik is a locality in Kuujjuaq; Nord-du-Québec, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Umingmaqautik is located at 58.1476°N, 68.2975°W.
Umingmaqautik occupies a stark, commanding position along the eastern bank of the Rivière Koksoak, where the land rises into the rugged elevation of Colline Chapel. It lies 7.5 km north-east of Kuujjuaq, QC (from Kuujjuaq, QC: bearing 53°T), and is situated 11.4 km west of Saugattalik. The terrain here is defined by the resilience of the subarctic, characterized by rocky outcrops and low-lying shrubs that shiver under the vast, pale light of the northern sky. During the long hours of dusk, the water of the Rivière Koksoak takes on a bruised, metallic sheen, reflecting the transition from the golden glare of the day to the deep violet of the coming frost. Roughly 12 km away, the Rivière Assaasijuup Kuukulunga carves its own path through the stubborn earth, a silent witness to the elemental forces that have long shaped this northern topography. The history of Umingmaqautik is held in the persistence of those who navigate the seasonal shifts of the land, maintaining a life that honors deep-rooted Indigenous traditions while adapting to the demands of the modern north. Daily existence in Umingmaqautik follows the turning of the ice and the arrival of the migratory cycles, with local industry and livelihood anchored in the resources provided by the surrounding wilderness. Life proceeds with a focused, deliberate clarity, where the sound of the wind moving across the Colline Chapel often serves as the primary clock for the day. In the quiet moments between tasks, the air carries a crisp, mineral sharpness that reminds anyone present of their proximity to the wild, untamed currents of the river.
Umingmaqautik se déploie avec une sobriété minérale sur les rives de la Rivière Koksoak, là où la terre semble retenir son souffle avant de s'étendre vers l'immensité boréale. Perché sur la Colline Chapel, le relief offre une perspective austère et grandiose sur les eaux sombres qui serpentent dans le bas-pays, tandis qu'à une douzaine de kilomètres, le cours de la Rivière Assaasijuup Kuukulunga marque la topographie de son tracé discret. Le vent, qui dévale les pentes avec une vigueur constante, façonne ici une existence rigoureuse, dictée par la rudesse du climat et la pérennité des traditions inuites qui imprègnent chaque geste quotidien. Dans cette lumière crépusculaire qui étire les ombres des rochers, Umingmaqautik révèle une beauté dépouillée, loin des artifices, où le silence devient une matière palpable sous un ciel immense. L'économie et les activités humaines s'ajustent aux exigences du terrain, privilégiant une harmonie silencieuse avec les cycles naturels de la toundra environnante. Les habitants, héritiers d'un savoir transmis par les générations, observent la Rivière Koksoak comme une artère vitale, un lien permanent entre la terre ferme et les horizons lointains, affirmant par leur présence une ténacité singulière dans ce paysage de pierre et d'eau.

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.
