Description From Owner:
  • Seven Days Work Nature Preserve : The name is descriptive of seven contrasting layers of basaltic rock and refers to the creation story found in the Book of Genesis.
  • The Bishop: A rock at Northern Head, Grand Manan L, shaped like a robed and mitred figure seated in a chair. In Passamaquoddy the name was Mussilabakek from the French monsieur l'évêque, indicating it had been named by the French.
  • Earlier the Passamaquoddy had called the place Boodebayooheegen, 'death trap of whales.'
  • With permission from 'New Brunswick Place Names' David E. Scott 2009
