Bonneville Lock


Got a note from one of the volunteers.  The lock at Bonneville is not functioning.  The engineers have not figured out the problem yet.  Meanwhile the Visitor Center on the Oregon side is closed.  Evidently they do not want traffic to cross the bridge that crosses in front of the lock.
This photo is of the lock with out water.  You can see the manifold system that the water passes through when the lock fills and drains.  This is a view that is not seen very often. 
  I hope that they solve the problem soon.  No shipping is happening during this time.  No barges.
No commerce.
