A typical scene on the Erie Canal? Hardly, as these boats are tied up
atop the only working aqueduct left in the entire canal system, part of
an historical exhibit at the Nine Mile Creek Aqueduct in Camillus, NY.
The paddle wheeler “Caldwell Belle” is indicative of the type of interesting tour boats
available to canal visitors. Normally based in Schuylerville near Lock C-5, the “Belle”
and her companion, the “Mohawk Maiden”, will be mainstays at Waterford events in
May, July and September. Visit
