This is a mountain on our local native's reserve. Each year they have a pow-wow, which is quite a site to see (expresses their heritage) Standing on top you can see Lake Superior, Sleeping Giant, literally all of the town. There's a lot of history here. This was where the town got it's drinking water, and up there you can... More

The sign says "if you miss Mt McKay, you miss Thunder Bay".... I don't think that is true. The view is awesome and there is a neat chapel to see but there is often some sketchy dude half way in collecting money. Not sure if he works there or is just hanging out.

Once you are up there it's beautiful and the views are amazing; excellent view of Sleeping Giant. It's a reality check to drive through the reserve and see how some of the Natives live (very nice...

Nice scenery, but not much to do. I don't think they should charge you to go up there. The road isn't very good. Good place to go to take Fall pictures. More
