Boating Upbound Through Peterborough Lift Lock - Sit Back Sunday GoPro Cruise

This 'Sit Back Sunday GoPro Boat Cruise' video (click here for the entire Playlist: https://goo.gl/YKdGFn) takes us from Little Lake in the city of Peterborough, through Lock #20, Ashburnham Lock, and northward along Ontario, Canada's 240 mile long Trent Severn Waterway. From there, we approach the infamous and iconic Peterborough Lift Lock.

Construction was finished on this structure in 1904 and it has been servicing boaters ever since. This lock provides the highest lift of it's type anywhere in the world, effortlessly raising and lowering boats 65'. It also remains the largest un-reinforced concrete structure in the world.

If you wish to see what it looks like when approaching from the top side of this lock, take a boo at this video -    • Boat Cruise Through Peterborough Lift...   - the very first in my 'Sit Back Sundays' video series. I also have a video of what it looks like to see it in action from the ground level. You can see that one by following this link -    • Peterborough Lift Lock - The Highest ...  .

Filmed July, 2014.

Captured with GoPro Hero 2

Known as the best fresh water cruising grounds in the world, Georgian Bay is located in the heart of the Great Lakes and forms part of Lake Huron. Renowned for is rugged beauty, Georgian Bay has been attracting adventurous boaters for over a century, but it's rocky shoreline and challenging navigation routes are not for the faint hearted and must be approached with the greatest care and respect.
