Natural Features

A section of Adam Creek, where it flows into the Matagami River, has been designated a nature reserve. It is the most accessible part of what is, for geologists, a definitive example of early-to-middle Wisconsin Kipling till -- clay, sand, boulders, and gravel deposited by a glacier 10,000 years ago.

Park Facilities and Activities

There are no park facilities for visitors in this undeveloped area. It is suitable for nature viewing, canoeing, and fishing. (Caution: Ontario Hydro uses Adam Creek as a flood channel.)
