The Gatun Locks

Entering the Panama Canal from the Atlantic Ocean, the Gatun Locks are the first to go through - they lift the ships via triple flights of locks to the height of Gatun Lake.

    Fine documentary of Panama's main source of income..:) Although the Canal suffered a huge revenue drop throughout the last years, taxes are still low and life is livable and affordable - at least for us 'Europeans'...

    Es sieht ja wirklich kompliziert aus diese moderne Form des treidelns, in hochtechnisierter Form. Sehr informativ für den Betrachter . G Michael

    makes me feel like i'm "right there" going through the lock with you, relying completely on those veteran techniques of engineering (1913?? wow!) and hoping those not very dependable-looking wires will hold ; ))… great shot again, adele! greetings, sabine.
