that is correct! It's along the trail up to Lookout Louise from Hidden Lake Dock. My first inkling of its existence came from a framed olde tyme ferry service advertisement that was hanging in the Rock Harbor Lodge common area. When I saw it with my own eyes, I found it less imposing than the formation pictured in the advertisement, largely because, whereas the formation pictured towered over shrubbery, the present formation had been engulfed by forest. But that forest burned the summer before last, so Monument Rock towers over (swiftly regenerating) shrubbery once again!

Re: Where was I?
On the bridge of the IR Queen? I don’t recognize the prow, and for sure it’s not the Ranger or the Voyageur.

Re: Where was I?
RedLeg, is that the old Post office dock on Minong Island in Tobin Harbour? I’ve been wondering what it looks like after the island burned over in the fire a couple years ago.

Re: Where was I?
Hay Bay? Just guessing, one of the few docks I haven't been to.

Re: Where was I?
IncaRoads you are correct that is Fisherman's Home Cove!

Re: Where was I?
We were lucky enough to get a ferry ride to Daisy farm on the Peregrine, one of the law enforcement boats last year. The Queen had to cancel its run the day before we arrived, so when we disembarked from the Ranger, they told us the Queen had been there once and was going to be brining another 100+ people that afternoon, so as a result they were offering rides to Daisy Farm to get people out of the area.
