Today is the first day of public navigation on the New York State Canal system. Many boats were lined up to traverse the Waterford Flight of Locks which raises the canal from the Hudson River to the Mohawk River. I added 32 images to the gallery of Waterford Harbor and the flight of locks.

I followed the boats entering and leaving lock E2, leaving lock E3 and entering lock E4. Here are some samples.
