Nope. That is actually a dam in North Hudson. Can’t pass through. This location is on a lake. Farther north.

Many thanks to Google Earth, Wikipedia, and YouTube for the drone flyover.  Never been there, but looks to be a nice lake.  Something like 37 named lakes in the area, with 20+ smaller unnamed lakes.  Was thinking the 23 would be better with all the hands on deck, but it looks like a 23 wouldn't make that passage between the two bodies if water.

23 wouldn't have fit through the "super cool tunnel". The kids loved the tunnel tour. Must have went back and fourth about 4 times through that thing. It is a very nice lake. Rented a cabin there for a week.

Correct.

Today launched the boat at Hastings and headed to Kinninnic at full speed until I realized that I was the only boat going fast. In the Kinninnic channel I asked a fisherman if the St Croix was under a slow no wake restriction. He answered 5 miles per hour all along the St. Croix. Idled 5 miles back to the Mississippi River and headed south to Treasure Island.

Wow, the water level is way high on the beach.  Kini is a long way at 5mph, glad to see someone out enjoying it though.
