Gerogian Bay - Collins Inlet


Collins Inlet cuts through a section of the Canadian Shield cutting off a piece of the mainland known as Phillip Edward Island.  The land on the right in this image is mainland and the land on the left, island.  With the exception of a few small areas, all of Phillip Edward Island is crown land, open for hiking and camping.  Collins Inlet cut connects Beaverstone Bay and Killarney.  If it were a dead-end gorge, it could be described as a fjord, so to be geologically correct, it is fjord-like.  Whatever, it is a passage with amazing natural beauty created on a pallet of granite ridges.
