Name origin and history

It was first charted in 1793 by James Johnstone, one of George Vancouver's officers during his 1791-95 expedition. It was here the men ate mussels that poisoned and killed one of them, John Carter, for whom Carter Bay is named; it is at the junction of Finlayson Channel and the west end of Sheep Passage at 52°49′33″N 128°23′46″W.[2] Poison Cove at 52°54′21″N 128°02′00″W[3] being the location where the mussels were harvested.[4] A creek northwest into that cove is Poison Cove Creek.[5][6]
