The site is located on the south shore of the Nelson River 2 km east of Rabbit
Creek and 1.7 km from the southwest corner of Isle “D.” The site was designated
due to the report that a member of TCN had found a projectile point at this
location. Subsequent visits revealed fabric impressed pottery along the sandy
shoreline east of the point. Site visits occurred in 2004, 2012, 2016 and 2018.
