A lot of trees were across this road to Tophet.

Hard to believe there were 24 homes and a 100 First Nation residents here from 1948 to 1972 when they swapped for land in Chapleau. Some stayed but they had no sewage , running water or employment. A fire in 1999 destroyed most of the town.

It was nice to see this tricycle here that was in Ron Brown's book of Ghost Towns.

Everything is over-grown so you have to look carefully.
