One of my favorites in real life when I travel this way. A somewhat diminished view nowadays by the growth of tall trees but still a spectacular view. The photo is from 1949 (I think). but still remember this from when I was young kid.
At the bottom of the hill you can just make out Loch Haven Inn & Cottages, (now Grouse Point) follow link below for more and better photos.

I know exactly where this is and yes all the view from the traffic circle at 106 and three and to this spot is disappearing over the years from the tree growth. This was always for the past 20 years my favorite view and it is now almost gone. As well as the pull offs around the lake, the scenice views are no longer scenic because they are no longer there from the overgrowth and vegetation
