Appearance in literature

Six Mile Point is mentioned in The Deerslayer. After running south through the shallow waters along the shore for fifty yards, Deerslayer was escaping the Hurons along the lake and began to move inland and climb the mountain, now known as Red House Hill. At the top of the hill he hid under a log, and the Hurons passed him thinking he was gone. He then noticed he was surrounded on three sides and ran down the hill towards the lake, passing through the few Hurons left at Six Mile Point. He then jumped in his canoe and was soon captured by the Hurons.[2]

gollark: Nvidia's done it stupidly *too*! It goes GTX 9x0 (Ti) → GTX 10x0 (Ti) → RTX 20x0 (Ti) + GTX 16x0 (Ti) (in the same generation) → now some of them have "Super" variants for some reason and some are being replaced by the super versions but some aren't.
gollark: The prices seem to be weirdly shifted in Australia.
gollark: If you want something slightly better than your current GPU, there's the RX 580, which is quite cheap, and yes the naming schemes are stupid.
gollark: Performance comparable.
gollark: The Vega 56 is somewhat lower-end than the 64, and the Nvidia GTX 1660 Ti is I think comparable to that (probably worth checking out benchmarks for the specific games you play), but turns out to be a lot cheaper in Australia.
