Explore Canal Park with cell phone tours

The Lake Superior Maritime Visitor Center now offers a new tour option by using visitors’ cell phones. This cell phone tour is an excellent way to explore and learn more about the history of the Corps of Engineers’ Canal Park. Best of all, the tour can be accessed at any time of the day. The cell phone tour’s highlighted stops include the tug Bayfield, the Duluth Ship Canal, Duluth’s Aerial Lift Bridge, local lighthouses and the shoreline anchor display.

To access the cell phone tour, visitors simply dial (218) 213-9069. Callers will listen to a short welcome message followed by instructions on how to receive information about each featured attraction. The cell phone tour is free. However, usual cell service provider usage rates do apply.

More information can be found on the Lake Superior Marine Museum Association (LSMMA) website, www.lsmma.com.
