For our winter sojourn we elected to head east and circumnavigate Lake Ponchartrain. Our first obstacle was the railroad bridge in Morgan City. A few days before the trip I absently checked the US Army Corps of Engineers website and found that it would be closed to navigation from 8 am – 2 pm for 3 days commencing with the day we planned to leave. We left a day early. On the way to New Orleans we stopped at Pat’s favorite East Bound ICW anchorage at 20 WHL. It is good, Lake Salvadore, 9 feet of water, and only yards off the ICW. Last, but important, an easy start to transit the Mississippi River and the locks. |
