The 'Annieopsquotch Mountains' are located in the southwestern interior of the island of
Newfoundland, east of
Bay St. George. Rising to a peak of 687 m (2,255 ft) above sea level, this range of hills runs in a north-eastward direction between Victoria Lake and
Red Indian Lake. It is composed of 500 million year old ocean floor rock; its name is
Micmac and literally translated means 'terrible rocks'.
