"taken from the hill east of Honeydew crossroad, that is, probably just off the Bull Creek Rd., looking southwest (yes, oddly enough, though of course the river will turn and head northwest) over the field surrounding you when you drive from H'dew toward Petrolia (toward Granny Creek and our museum)-- river on your right, big golden field and eventually ridge on your left."
