A shelter has been created by two short stretches of walling that have been built across the entrance into a triangular shaped void beneath two massive rocks. Within the interior, an area of reddened soil contained by laid slabs indicates the position of a hearth. On the date of visit, no trace was found of the three shelters recorded near here by Mary Harman in the 1970s. Photographs that accompany her records suggest that they are little more that voids beneath large boulders. [Canmore]
