Located on Lot 33, Concession VII, on the border between Stisted and Chaffey Township, a roadcut measuring approximately 200 meters long and approximately 4 - 5 meters high at the highest vertical face, shows numerous mineral exposures cutting amphibolite and biotite gneiss.
This roadcut can be found along Ravenscliffe Road on the northwest shore of Lake Vernon (Vernon Shores).
The roadcut was discovered while taking a "backroad trip", south to Huntsville Ontario from our home in Burk's Falls Ontario (Lloyd Van Duzen information).
