These Montreal folks helped us tie up on the wall outside of the lock for the night. Their party was just breaking up and they were headed for home. We purchased a pass to tie up at any Parks Canada location.
Unique lock, we tied to the floating dock in the lock at St. Ours
Quebec Province flag on left was seen in the Quebec Province area we travelled more than the Canadian flag.
Had to wait for this cable ferry to be sure the cable was on the bottom of the river before we passed over it
St. Anton - another town, another big church!
One of several cable ferries along the way.
Do you think we will make this one?
Beautiful scenery and only one lock to go today
