| Notes
| The St. Lawrence Seaway in the broadest sense, is a huge water-way extending 2,3000 miles from the Atlantic Ocean to the head of the Great Lakes in the heart of North America. The air view shows boats locking through the only triple flight locks in the system. The total lift on the Welland Canal section is 326 feet and ships virtually "climb a mountain." |
