Anchored on the River
13 September 2012 | Sugar Island
Monday, September 10th - During the night four or five tows went by and each time the bridge has to lift, so all the whistles sound - but other than that it was a quiet night. We were up and on our way at 7:30 to our next lock, the Brandon Road Lock, a drop of 34 feet. Next we did the Dresden Island Lock, another 22 feet for a total of almost 100 foot drop from Lake Michigan. We anchored in 8 feet of water behind Sugar Island, at mile 260 a nice quiet anchorage.
