We have been watching reports of NYS Canal System O1 Lock being closed for the past week. O1 is Oswego Canal #1 in Phoenix NY.

The bridge and/or lock has been closed to all boat htraffic for a week or more. But the latest word is, “We are open to traffic.”

SO, our Plan A to head up the Hudson River to the Erie Canal, then take the right to go up the Oswego Canal to Lake Ontario is a “GO”. We leave Wednesday June 5 after celebrating our son’s 31st birthday on June 4.

Ultimate destination for Summer 2024 is the Trent Severn Waterway in Canada.
