You can cross over the top of the lock and walk around areas that are normally closed. It is always the last Friday in June. The Edison Sault power plant opens that day and is a wonderful building to view. This year Engineer's Day is June 25. Hope to see you there!Soo Boat Watcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12786921529750939301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7490821408991369121.post-7528959577603379372010-04-21T14:29:24.087-04:002010-04-21T14:29:24.087-04:00Is there a day that one can tour the Locks?
