Sleeping Giant Mountain Necklace

Coordinates  48.3372° N, 88.9044° W

Located in the Thunder Bay area of Northwestern Ontario, this Canadian natural wonder is a series of mesas formed by the erosion of thick, basaltic sills on the Sibley Peninsula and resembles a giant lying on its back.

An Ojibway legend tells the story of Nanabijou, Spirit of the Deep Sea Water, who was turned to stone when the secret location of a silver mine, now known as Silver Islet, was disclosed to the white man. To this day, the great sleeping figure of Nanabijou protects the wide opening to the bay. On a little island at the giant’s feet, partly submerged shafts of the silver mine can still be seen. Many have tried again and again to pump out the flooding waters from Lake Superior to access the silver riches that lay within without success.
