Looking southerly as Highway 17 begins its decent down the Montreal River
Hill. Unfortunately when this photo was taken, Lake Superior was
covered by a fine mist that just kept the water out of view. The
Montreal River Hill offers travelers one of the most scenic vistas of Lake
Superior to be found along Highway 17.

Looking again south at the same curve as the
previous photo. It is hoped that the current Highway 17 alignment
would be left open as a scenic loop ensuring future travelers can continue
to enjoy the beautiful view of the lake once the Montreal River Hill
diversion is completed

Looking north towards the abrupt start of the Montreal River Hill. The
transition from the the fairly tame Lake Superior shoreline into the rugged
hills hills along the north and east sides of the lake is never more
pronounced then it is at the Montreal River.
