Deep Creek Bridge Deviation Mariners are advised of an infrastructure refurbishment project on the Deep Creek Bridge, mile 11.1 over the Dismal Swamp Canal, in Chesapeake, Virginia. The project will require the bridge to be maintained in the closed-to-navigation position from January 6, 2025, through March 21, 2025, to facilitate construction of the new bascule span of the new bridge. During this time period, visitors to Lake Drummond will be able to access the Dismal Swamp Canal via the South Mills Locks in South Mills, North Carolina or from the various boat ramps along the canal. Vessels transiting the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway will need to use the Albemarle and Chesapeake Canal as an alternate route during this timeframe. Comments or concerns can be sent to the U.S. Coast Guard Sector Virginia Waterways Management Division via email at virginiawaterways@uscg.mil. # |

In the NC Cut, my family and I came upon what we thought was a Mickey Mouse balloon floating across the ICW. It was a black bear!
Special report: The state’s black bear population was in trouble 50 years ago, but research and conservation measures put in place in the decades since — with hunters’ “direct cooperation” — have enabled the species to recover, although not everyone is happy.
