Southwest island, southward of the western end of Northwest 

 island, is about 80 feet high. Ramea harbor, on its eastern side, is a 

 good harbor for fishing craft. Southwest rocks extend westward 600 

 yards from the western point of Southwest island. Southward of this 

 island and these rocks are several shoals. 



Northwest head, the northwestern part of the western entrance 

 point of White Bear bay, is rugged and faced by cliffs. 



Turks head, westward, distant 1 miles from Northwest head, is a 

 steep bluff with a rugged background. Between these heads is Emily 

 Storehouse cove, a bight 1,000 yards deep and open to the southward. 



Gull island, bearing 239, distant 1 mile from Turks head, is 73 

 feet high, and the outer of a cluster of cliffy islets. Being of the 

 same color as the mainland, it is not easily distinguished. 



Several shoals which lie within a little over a mile westward and 

 southward of Gull island, with depths of 4 to 7 fathoms over them, 

 break heavily in bad weather. 



Red island, westward 1 miles from Gull island, is about & mile 

 long in a northerly and southerly direction, with a w r idth varying 

 from 1,000 to 300 yards, and it is divided into two parts by a low 

 neck of land, the inner a wooded cone 377 feet, and the outer a flat- 

 topped hill with a white summit 326 feet high. Its outer cliffs are 

 red. 



This island divides a deep bay into two parts, Northeast arm, which 

 extends 1 miles, and Northwest arm, 1 miles. 



Northeast arm has deep water and affords no shelter for 1 mile 

 within its entrance; then a channel 50 yards wide leads to an inner 

 basin, named Doctor harbor, 750 yards long and 150 yards wide, with 

 sheltered anchorage for small craft in 4 to 5 fathoms water. 



Red Island harbor, a widening of the channel separating the island 

 from the mainland, is 500 yards long and 200 yards broad; it can be 

 entered only from the eastward through a channel 30 yards wide, and 

 it is suitable for fishing craft. 



Northwest arm. Cross rocks narrow the channel between them 

 and Red island, at \ mile within the entrance of the arm, to 200 yards, 

 with a depth of 5 fathoms; inside these rocks there is anchorage for 

 small craft in 8 to 9 fathoms water, good holding ground. 



Bay de Loup, or Wolf bay [Lat. 47 37' 30" N., Long. 57 33' 45" 

 W.], extends northeastward 2f miles from its entrance between Bay 

 de Loup point and Kings Head point, situated nothwestward, about 

 1,700 yards. The shores of the bay are precipitous, with deep water 

 close-to, and there is no anchorage until Blow-me-down, a steep bluff, 

 513 feet high, on the northern shore at about f mile from the head, is 

 passed, when there is good shelter in 10 fathoms water, and the depth 

 gradually decreases to 4 fathoms toward the head. The most con- 

 venient anchorage is off the houses at the mouth of Seal brook, a 

 small stream situated northeastward about 800 yards from Blow-me- 

 down. 



Water. Excellent water is obtainable in bay de Loup. 



Kings harbor, immediately westward of Kings head, the western 

 entrance point of bay de Loup, is an inlet extending northeastward 

 1,050 yards, which affords anchorage in 9 fathoms of water at 150 

 yards off its southern shore. Kings Harbor brook flows into the 

 western part of the harbor, and a bank extends eastward 250 yards 

 from its mouth.
