That is so terrible. I’m proud of the Minnesotans that came to help.

Until Denette showed that image in post 1,585 the idea of water scouring was ridiculous to me. I have been over and under that bridge so many times, I could not figure out how that could possibly be the cause of this accident.

But then I looked very closely at the lock and dam. Before a lock can be opened, the water must be drained. Where are the water currents located, when this lock is being emptied?

I have enjoyed a boat trip with my wife at this location, where we sat in that lock and waited for the water to be emptied.
