Just got back from driving along the St Lawrence, even though it was dark there was a full moon so I could see the river crystal clear. great night for a night dive.... I digress.. onward.

Lock 21 - frozen solid.
Morrisburg - frozen solid.
Conestoga - Open water. You can drift off the wreck and surface anywhere between the conny and the yellow factory. use caution when entering or exitting there is still snow and ice on shore.
Gallop Canal/Lock 28- Frozen with the exception of the lock proper under the red footbridge. You can jump in at the "top" of the lock and freedive it and use the ladder to climb out before the ice shelf. this ladder will NOT support scuba gear
Kitty Halk - as noted above Frozen.
Prescott Docks. Frozen but open water mid channel. Ice shelf extends approx 100 feet from the dock/entry ladder. might be open in 2 weeks.
Rothesay. Frozen solid.
Centin Park/Gaskin/Blockhouse Is - frozen solid. Again evidence of open water mid channel.

Dive dive dive. looks like it's the conny - conny/legion hall drift for a few more weeks.
