Rock Lake Cliffs - Algonquin Park by Bill Mason
7 inches by 4 1/4 inches
Rock Lake Cliffs - Algonquin Park: We are not sure when Bill visited Rock Lake. It may have been on one of his canoe trips through Algonquin Park or perhaps just a day trip as he drove through the area. But it's clear that what attracted him to this spot was not only the beautiful cliffs that he painted but also quite likely the native pictographs on the west side of the lake. This is one of very few pictograph sites in Algonquin Park and I'm sure that Bill would have felt it worthy of at least one visit.
