The site’s name in Ojibwe is Mazinaubikinguning which means the “adorned rock on Agawa Lake”.

Beautiful representations of real and mythical animals adorn the cliff, one of which being Mishipeshu, the Great Lynx.

This mythical creature is a water dwelling dragon-like animal that also resembles a lynx with horns and a back tail covered in scales. Mishipeshu is believed to cause rough and dangerous water conditions claiming numerous victims.
