The Big Chute-Lock #44 on the Trent Severn Waterway










Surprise!! TWO posts in ONE DAY?!?  The attached pictures are from 2 +/- weeks ago when we finished the Trent Severn Waterway.  Our friend Mike from Tranquillity III was so kind to document the transition from Lake Ontario to Lake Huron.  It has taken me this long download the images to a readable file for the blog…I know, it hurts my brain too!

Anyway, enjoy the pictures of what was the most exciting lock on the waterway!!
 








The Lower Place secured on the sling



Rising up, I wave to Mike who is taking pics on land




The Lower Place hangs off the back of the lift-no bent shafts or props.  Note our position to the tree top.

Headed down the other side to Lake Huron.  I'm just hanging out the window.
And it goes without saying that we "splashed down" safely and without incident.  Wonderful experience and very happy to have completed the Trent Severn Waterway.

Happy Monday to all!!
God Bless!
