Explore Incline Plane 9 West of the Morris Canal

Plane 9 West is the longest inclined plane on the Morris Canal (about 1600 feet) with the highest change in elevation (100 feet). The property was purchased by James Lee, Sr., one of the foremost authorities on the Morris Canal. The late James Lee, Sr. with his family worked for decades to excavate the turbine pit and uncovered the original tubine. Join us as we climb through the tail race tunnel to see the turbine and visit the the Jim and Mary Lee Museum.
