Caption Description
The Panama Canal is a lock and lake canal, crossing the Isthmus of Panama from the Caribbean Sea in a southeasterly direction to the Bay of Panama of the Pacific Ocean. Gatun Dam blocks the Charges river near its Atlantic mouth, creating Gatun Lake, 23 ¾ miles long, 85 feet above sea level, about 45 feet deep. Ships ascend to the lake by locks and then pass through Gaillard Cut 8 miles long.
