The guide
Where exactly
From State Route 4 in Kingsbury, Take Route 149 East. Drive 1 mile and look for signs for the lock. Turn right onto lock road JUST before the steel-deck bridge. Cross street: Towpath & St. Rte. 149
Cruisiest spot: After turning down the lock road, drive all the way to the end. The road zig-zags through trees to provide a great natural cover for covert play.
When to go
No hours posted. Best times: After the sun goes down you can't be seen from the main road. Dates open: Year Round
Etiquette
Flash lights or blink breaks to get attention.
Safety
Not so good during the day as the lock is open publicly. However it is a nice spot for a picnic or something. Avoid being obvious during day.
