| On the Summit of Mount Cheminis |
Mount Cheminis lies on the McGarry Township, Ontario and the Quebec border. 
Traveling east on Trans-Canada Highway 66, you’ll see it rising like a mirage in the
distance. Framed by two smaller hills, it seems to be growing straight up and out
of the road. It has a majesty about it that takes your breath away. Little wonder
that the area’s original Ojibway inhabitants identified it as an important
ceremonial ground. A well-worn trail exists on the north side. Near the base of the
distance. Framed by two smaller hills, it seems to be growing straight up and out
