What You'll Like:

Edward Island is a low-lying island, densely covered with boreal forest. Geologists and rockhounds can have a field day here, locating specimens of Paleohelikian, Southern Province, volcanic and sedimentary rocks, not to mention the type section for the lower member of the Osler Group. Volcanic flows and basalt sheets intermingle with till from ancient Lake Wisconsin and recent cobble beaches.

Location: In Lake Superior, about 42 kilometres east of Thunder Bay.
