Your Looking for a Bison tube

It is NOT ON THE WALL OR ON LOCK
The twelfth lock on the Hocking Canal, the Sheep Pen lock,

underscores Southeast Ohioans' efforts to open their region to the world during

the mid-nineteenth century. Built as a guard lock, it was intended to permit slackwater

navigation of the Hocking River by regulating water depths where river and canal met.

Those plans were later abandoned and the mechanism was converted to a lift lock, which

raised and lowered boats as required by changes in the canal's elevation.
