Panorama
This is a very picturesque cliff located on the
west shore of a small lake. From the trans-Canada highway bypass that runs
north around Kenora go north on the Grassy Narrows Road (PR#671) past Jones
Cliff to the Jones railway crossing. Turn left onto a secondary gravel
road 3.3km beyond Jones (10.5km past the Jones Cliff, or 40.5km from the
trans-Canada highway). The cliff is across a lake on the right, 8.1km down
this road. Continue up the hill ahead and just past the crest of the hill
turn right onto a rough trail which ends at a turnaround. A path heading
east from the trail 20m before the turnaround branches into trails that
go to the top and bottom of the cliff. There are exit routes at each end
of the cliff.
