Raising the Wickets

Locks and Dam 52 is just one of two such structures left on the Ohio River that uses wooden wicket dams to maintain a navigational pool during low water. It's a feature of Ohio River navigation that will become history when Olmsted replaces the deteriorating locks and dams 52 ad 53 with twin 1,200foot lock chambers and metal wickets.
