After a bit of searching, I discovered it was at Trenton, not Monroe. Interesting footage of the efforts to free her: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dyQppLhVMFk

Didn't McKee's Son used to deliver stone there? Isn't that where she ran aground several years back?

No definitely not a first middlerouge as they have been shipping stone to Monroe now for quite a few years. I don't know for sure but at one time ASC used to do it with some of their boats and may still do. Now it seems that Interlake has also gotten into this trade as well.

Jackson took one load there last season. Looks like it may start becoming more common.

Some days you win and some days you lose. I missed several passing vessels, but here are three I didn't.
