Healy Falls and Locks

August 19, 2023 -- Healey Falls are a wide falls on the Trent River. They are over a hundred meters (328 feet) in length. A dam runs across the top of the falls. You could walk all the way across the dam. That was neat. The majority of the water flow is sent for hydroelectric power. When I saw the falls, there wasn't much water flow. They weren't very impressive. That's the thing about water falls. They need water!
