The site is located on an eroded rocky shoreline (Asiníwahkáw) along the

southern shoreline of Gull Lake approximately 1.2 km south of Lillian’s (Hydro)
Island. The shoreline consists of large rocky outcrops and small sandy areas
that have been visually eroding. Lithic debitage was collected during the
investigations. Site visits occurred in 2012, 2015, 2016, 2018 and 2019.
