St. Clair River/Port Huron Trip - November 11, 2024: Indiana Harbor

Finally!  The last set from my trip to Port Huron, and probably my second favorite, just behind the Arthur M. Anderson set.  Indiana Harbor upbound at the Blue Water Bridge, heading out into Lake Huron and past the Fort Gratiot Lighthouse.













Saginaw River Passage - November 19, 2024: Sam Laud

Sam Laud inbound on the Saginaw River, headed up to the Wirt Stone Dock in Saginaw after unloading a partial cargo at the Wirt Stone Dock in Bay City. It was back to my roots this morning, standing in the rain at the river edge as she passed. While there are no drone photos today due to the fog and rain, it is still always nice just to have a camera in your hand...







Saginaw River Passage - November 17, 2024: Iver Bright & North Dakota - Part 2

Iver Bright inbound on the Saginaw River, assisted by North Dakota, making the turn into the slip at Port Fisher to unload for Bit-Mat Products.

Saginaw River Passage - November 17, 2024: Olive L. Moore/Menominee

Olive L. Moore/Menominee on the Saginaw River, unloading at the Port Fisher Terminals Dock in Bay City. It is unusual to see a vessel unloading aggregates at the Terminals dock, but this season, they have been directly loading train hopper cars at the dock, so they have been keeping a supply near the rail spur. You can see the green loading conveyors and railroad track in the photos.








Saginaw River Passage - November 17, 2024: Tug North Dakota & Iver Bright

Tug North Dakota was working on the Saginaw River, assisting Iver Bright to and into the slip at Port Fisher in Bay City. 









St. Clair River/Port Huron Trip - November 11, 2024: Atlantic Huron

Atlantic Huron coming off Lake Huron and passing under the Blue Water Bridge. Hard to believe this was a week ago already and I am still going through photos from this trip!
