The John J. Boland approaches the historic Marquette Ore Docks — with a rare behind-the-scenes look inside the dock itself! ⚓ Did you know nearly 90% of America’s iron ore comes from the Lake Superior region? These massive freighters play a crucial role in moving raw materials down the Great Lakes to steel mills across the country. A powerful glimpse into the heart of American industry, from a whole new angle. #JohnJBoland #Marquette #michigan #marquetteoredock #taconite #essentialcargoes #great

Here's my last video from yesterday, when the John J Boland of Grand River Navigation went by Mission Point and Rotary Park downbound on their way to Toledo It was a bad time of day to be doing a video but the Boland doesn't come this way too often so I wanted to be sure to catch them anyway.. I am hopeful she'll be up this way more this season, than she has been in the past few They gave a nice salute at Rotary Park so a big thank you to their Captain for that!

Ok here’s the John J Boland just before sunset on her way out to Lake Superior and westbound to Superior Wisconsin and layup at Elevator M there… what a terrific day today.. perfect for their arrival this morning which sadly was in the dark so I missed it… but I made it for their departure!! First Mate Trevor Schick stayed in touch with me and kept me abreast of what time they would be leaving the dock… it wound up later than they had originally expected because their boom wasn’t co-operating wh
