Big Chute Marine Railway, Trent Severn, Georgian Bay, Ontario, Canada
A nice place to visit with family when you're up north in cottage country. There is a marine restaurant (with a nice outdoor patio) close by with awesome nachos. A few steps away is an ice-cream shop. Loads of free parking.
Built in 1977, its a 'one of a kind' unique engineering design, carrying boats over the land barrier at Big Chute. It replaces the original marine railway which was built in 1917 and is still there, but now out of service.

The crew of Kismet is cruising the Trent Severn Waterwy from Orillia to Trenton – Ontario, Canada. We trailered the boat to Orillia from Michigan. This historic inland passagway features heritage locks and canals. Cruise the waterway and spend each night on the lock wall near a small town or surrounded by nature.
Just another good reason to own a trailerable trawler. The cruising possibilities are endless.

Yep. It was suppose to be a couple of weeks ago - until I put my back out. Ahhhhh. My back is slowly healing, thanks to physio. Really looking forward to this trip.

My Ontario-Trent Severn Waterway - Kirkfield Lift Lock - Ontario
One of two lift locks in Ontario, Peterborough Hydraulic Lift Lock and The historic Kirkfield Lift Lock. The Kirkfield Lift Lock is located a few kilometres north of the Village of Kirkfield, Ontario. The Kirkfield Lift Lock is the second highest hydraulic lift lock in the world with a lift of 15 metres (49 ft). The lock is situated at the highest point along the Waterway at 256.20 meters (840.5 ft) above sea level. Most boaters prefer to stay on the lower reach to avoid the stairs and gain easy access to the washrooms.
