Erie Canal in Seneca Falls, NY113 viewsOnly 4 feet deep originally, it was later deepened to 7 feet for the newer, bigger barges. It has been moved several times and much of it is abandoned today. You can see the remains of boats that were trapped in backwaters when portions of the canal were shut down. The canals could not compete with the railroad when tracks came through.Jun 26, 2008

Boating the Erie Canal113 viewsNote 2 bicycles come with your boat rental to explore the villages you tie up at. Many Villages provide tieups, pumpouts, electric hookups, restaurants close to the canal, etc. There are folks who live full or part-time on the canals.Jun 26, 2008

Seneca Falls National Women's Rights Park111 viewsThe first meeting on women's rights was held right here. It was touched off by 2 women who attended a conference on slavery overseas. All the women there participated so loudly and passionately the first day that the men spent the next day deciding to send them to the back of the room with orders to keep quiet. Jun 26, 2008
