We finished the “Triangle Loop” and returned to sea level!

5:00 p.m. The lower gate of the Troy Federal Lock opens signifying our return to sea level!

The Hudson River is tidal all the way past Albany NY to this lock. So the tides and tidal currents are now a factor for us again as we move south.

Apple Watch app… automatically finds the closest tide station and displays its current status. You can scroll forward and back to see several days of data.

I got the Apple Watch that can also tell you what time it is! <wink>

Triangle Loop details

Map of the two Triangle Loop routes.

With our passing Waterford NY today where we were on Monday June 10th to start the westward trek on the Erie Canal, we completed this triangle through parts of NY, Ontario, Quebec, and VT.

In addition, did a lot of the Trent Seven Waterway, (which this map does not show.)

Note that there is a St Lawrence River route that follows the US-Canada border for many miles, and a Rideau route that goes up through Ottawa.

We took the St Lawrence River option. This option fit our big picture calendar better, it gets us to Long Island NY sooner to meet Lucas, our new grandson!
