Specific picture descriptions: Photos above with "i" icons next to the bracketed sequence numbers (e.g. "[1] ") are described as follows:
1. GFALLS_181217_034.JPG: The hiking trail goes straight into the water. You can see the blue indicator on the tree in a couple feet of water.
2. GFALLS_181217_108.JPG: Maintaining the Flow: The Locks 5-22 Project What is the PLAN?
3. GFALLS_181217_175.JPG: More rain raised Potomac River water levels 10 inches as the area set a record for annual precipitation. At the NPS C&O Canal site at Great Falls (Maryland), land disappeared under a deluge of muddy water.
4. GFALLS_181217_316.JPG: Boats Passing By Chesapeake and Ohio Canal Historical Park In days past, while standing on the edge of the canal one would see a variety of boats float by. During the peak operating years of the C&O canal in the 1870's, as many as 550 freight boats were in use on the canal carrying tons of coal from Cumberland to Georgetown. These were the most common boats associated with the canal. Mule freighters were only part of the story, a story can be told in boats.
5. GFALLS_181217_321.JPG: Work Boats Maintenance boats helped maintain the waterway by removing aquatic growth and debris, and responding to breaches and flood damage.
6. GFALLS_181217_322.JPG: Launches At the turn of the 20th century small engine-powered boats called launches or crusiers were used to explore and conduct canal business.
7. GFALLS_181217_326.JPG: Packet Boats Horse drawn packet boats provided commercial excursions and passenger transportation.
8. GFALLS_181217_354.JPG: The December 2018 floods raised Potomac River water levels 10 inches. The area set a record for annual precipitation. At the NPS C&O Canal site at Great Falls (Maryland), land disappeared under a deluge of muddy water.
