The site is located on a peninsula along the south shore of Gull Lake, southwest
of a large island. Artifacts at the site were found in a deposit of clay on the
shoreline that had eroded out of the terrace. Black spruce and birch originally
dotted the terrace of the site but has since been cleared out by forest fire and
clearing. Site visits occurred in 2004 and 2012.
