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 Patuanak.
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.

Patuanak is a northern hamlet in Saskatchewan, Canada. It is classified as a large city. Patuanak is located at 55.9128°N, 107.7183°W.
Patuanak rests upon the northern landscape as a quiet outpost situated directly on the shore of Lac Île-à-la-Crosse. It lies 47.9 km east of Buffalo Narrows, SK (from Buffalo Narrows, SK: bearing 83°T), and is situated 18.2 km west-south-west of Pine River. The land here is defined by the persistent presence of the Churchill River, which carves its way through the terrain with a cold, steady purpose. During the long evenings, the light takes on a bruised, violet quality, reflecting off the surface of the water until the distinction between the sky and the lake seems to dissolve entirely. The air carries the sharp, clean scent of spruce and damp earth, a reminder of the vast, boreal stretches that surround the settlement on every side. The history of Patuanak is rooted in the survival and movement of those who navigated the waterways long before modern infrastructure reached the north. Economic life in Patuanak continues to draw from the surrounding wilderness, with many residents engaged in traditional harvesting, fishing, and trapping that align with the seasonal shifts of the north. Small-scale enterprise and local service roles provide the necessary support for daily life, ensuring that the people remain connected to the land through both necessity and heritage. In the quiet hours of the morning, the sound of an outboard motor occasionally breaks the stillness, marking the start of a day spent tending to the tasks that sustain the household and the spirit alike. Cultural life in Patuanak is deeply grounded in the traditions of the English River Dene, reflecting a resilience that has matured over generations. The identity of the people is inseparable from their relationship with the Churchill River, which serves as a constant companion and a source of life. Gatherings often center around the shared knowledge of the land, where the passing of stories maintains a sense of continuity that defies the isolation of the northern geography. While the pace of the world outside may accelerate, Patuanak persists in its own deliberate manner, valuing the strength found in kinship and the profound, heavy silence of the northern woods.

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.
