Grab your family, friends and your running shoes for a commemorative Great Miter Retire 5K Fun Run at 10 am, Saturday, Oct. 7, 2023, at https://www.facebook.com/ChittendenLocks!
Our large lock center miter gates are the original gates and have facilitated navigation since 1916.
This October, we'll start work to replace them. Improving this 106-year-old navigation infrastructure will help us provide dependable navigation for the next 100+ years.
Walk or run along these engineering marvels one last time during this fun run that'll start and end at these gates.
Registration is now open. Click https://www.discovernw.org/great-miter-gate-fun-run.html or scan the QC code, to register or for more info.
All registration funds will go toward supporting new exhibits in our fish ladder viewing room.
Here's our upcoming extended large lock center gate closure schedule: Lock Closure Schedule
