Day 1 on the Trent Severn | 12 Locks in 1 Day | Our Great Loop

Stay 'till the end for bloopers! This week we enter the Trent-Severn waterway and go through a whopping TWELVE locks in a single day! Don't worry, we'll slow it down and linger a bit more for the balance of the 44 locks!
Remember, our videos are about a month behind real time. This one happened in July 2023.

A good lock video that shows how Canadian locks are manually opened. I am surprised the kids didn't open one. Great time and ice cream would be a just reward. Enjoy

[@onFIREfamily]

We walked across but never opened one.

What a great family trip. Your kids will tell stories of this journey to their Grandchildren some day.

[@onFIREfamily]

I hope so!

That’s a lot of locks but looks like good times.

[@onFIREfamily]

Great times!

[@andrewmellon5072]

Thank you for another interesting and enjoyable video.

[@onFIREfamily]

Glad you enjoyed it

Beautiful scenery along the waterway. Wow, the lockmasters who operate manual locks get a serious workout every day! Lovely video, thanks.

[@onFIREfamily]

Yes, it’s a lot of work opening those gates!

[@bl_leafkid4322]

Beautiful. How much did you have to pay?

[@onFIREfamily]

About $1000 I think for the locking and mooring pass based on the size of our boat. They have discounts if you buy early. www.commandesparcs-parksorders.ca/en/bateaux-canaux-boating-canals?_gl=1*16ru3xn*_ga*OTIwNzA2MjQyLjE3MjE3OTYyMTM.*_ga_PC690N3X7Z*MTcyMTc5NjIxMi4xLjEuMTcyMTc5NjI1My4wLjAuMA..&_ga=2.58484015.400303972.1721796213-920706242.1721796213

Sorry, sometimes the audio balancing (the last step in production) gets missed before publishing. Will try to do better!
