Crystalline marble rock from one of the largest landslides in southern Ontario that occured on the right side of the trail about 1914 is exposed as some is used for repair work to the Cataraqui Trail, by the Cataraqui Region Conservation Authority. The CNoR rainway and trail are built along an ancient 10 km. long fault line with uplifted granite on the west side.

Rock was dumped along side the CNoR railway subsequent to it being built. It seems that the high cliff on the west side was unstable and a lot of rock was removed and piled here. The railway bed can be seen on the left, now the Cataraqui Trail. by Steve Manders
A canal was dug from a mine on the east shore of Upper Rock Lake, to Stonehouse Lake in the background, to this pond and to continuing on the lower right to bring phosphate ore to the CNoR rail siding here in 1910. The CNoR had just been built from Napanee to Ottawa. Phosphate was used as fertilizer. It did not last long. by Steve Manders
A canal (shown on the right) was built parallel to the CNoR railway in 1910 for barges to bring phosphate from an Upper Rock Lake mine to a railway siding here. Some heavy wood timbers with heavy iron in it can be found, but the area appears to have been burried by a lot of heavy rock subsequently removed from the cliff on the west side of the tracks. by Steve Manders
A major land slide occured here several years after the opening of the CNoR railway in 1912 blocking the tracks. A large steam shovel removed the rock from the right, piled it on the siding on the left. The rock was used to repair a major washout in 2016, 200 m. to the north. The grey marble rock slid off the red granite hill on the right, along an ancient fault line. by Steve Manders

Former Canada Central Railway (CCR), later CP railway bed from Renfrew to Arnprior built by 1876, now being torn up in 2013. This section of track was originally built as a wide gauge, but it was converted to the standard gauge in 1880. It was the last railway to do so in Canada. For a few years, it had a third track to handle both gauges. It originally ran from Brockville to Carleton Place, Renfrew and ended at Mattawa north west of Ottawa. by Steve Manders
