Old Champlain Canal Lock 7 Halfmoon, NY |
 |
|
Old Champlain Canal Lock 7, also known as Flynn's Lock, built about 1862, is located in the Town of Halfmoon. The old towpath is wonderfully restored as a modern bicycle path, but the lock itself is badly overgrown. You can walk right past it and not see it. This is the southern entrance, photo taken facing north.
