 SKINNER BLUFF 

An interesting series of ridges and bluffs assoc-
iated with the Niagara Escarpment are visible from 
this site. At the top is a massive dolostone bluff, 
an erosional feature flanked by a talus slope of 
fallen rock. Immediately below, a ridge of sands 
and gravel records the 11,000 year old shoreline 
of postglacial Lake Algonquin. The road descends 
a small secondary scarp created by resident dolo-
stope of the Manitoulin Formation and a shore 
bluff of postglacial Lake Nipissing dating back 
some 5000 years.
