The site is located on an rocky point of land along the west shore of Gull Lake,

approximately 1.2 km west of Caribou Island. The site was recorded in 2012 A
Nelson River
and named Rocky Point (Asiniy-néyáw). The site was originally characterized
as a lithic workshop based on the recovery of Pre-European Contact lithic
flakes. In 2018, one Late Woodland ceramic sherd was recovered from the
shoreline. Site visits occurred in 2012, 2013, 2016 and 2018.
