Photo faces north and north-east. The hiking/biking trail (which is both the Trans Canada Trail and the Niagara Parkway Recreational Trail) runs away into the forest. Far right is a "corner" of the "defensive ridge" surrounding Fort George. Past it is the roof of the washroom building. To its left, the Fort George gift shop (powder blue with white trim) shows under the trees.

Photo faces west and south-west. The marker and its flat rock are under the "first" (south-eastern-most) tree in the small bunch of trees. The awkward structure is called The Agora, a novel design for educational presentations. On the distant left, 150 metres away, the tree-lined road named Queen's Parade cuts across. Behind it is a region of The Commons growing wild.
