Konzentrationslager Auschwitz, KL Auschwitz (Stammlager), German Nazi concentration and extermination camp (1940–45)
Stormy dawn. Called this "hell", as the mozzies were fierce, very fierce. And when searching car for mozzie repellant (was in the car yesterday), well, it was not in the car. So sit in the car, mozzies "dat dat dat at" on outside of car, wait for the moment, rush outside to take couple of quick shots, get covered in belligerent mozzies, run back to car. Next time, "don't forget the Aerogard" :-)
There was nice banding in the sky. There was lightning to the left, but I was not hanging around with those mozzies to get lightning as well.

Hells Gate - Boston Bar - British Columbia - Canada
Hells Gate is an abrupt narrowing of British Columbia's Fraser River, located immediately downstream of Boston Bar in the southern Fraser Canyon. The towering rock walls of the Fraser River plunge toward each other forcing the waters through a passage only 35 metres (115 ft) wide. It is also the name of the rural locality at the same location.
For centuries the narrow passage has been a popular fishing ground for Aboriginal communities in the area. European settlers also began to congregate there in the summer months to fish. Eventually the Fraser Canyon became a route used by gold rush miners wishing to access the upper Fraser gold-bearing bars and the upper country beyond up the Fraser and the Thompson. In the 1880s the Canadian Pacific Railway (CPR) built a transcontinental railroad that passed along the bank at Hells Gate, and in 1911 the Canadian Northern Railway (CNR) began constructing a second track. In 1914 a large rockslide triggered by CNR construction fell into the river at Hells Gate, obstructing the passage of Pacific salmon needing to swim upstream to spawn. Salmon had difficulty passing through the now swifter water, and were appearing in increased numbers downstream below the Hells Gate passage and in tributary rivers and streams that they had not inhabited before. In the winter of 1914 debris removal began, and in 1915 the river was pronounced clear. However many biologists claim that the river was permanently altered and the salmon migration would forever remain disturbed by the slide.

A little bit of history...
The Hell Gate Bridge was completed in 1917 by the Pennsylvania Railroad (It was actually part of a Pennsylvania subsidiary called the "New York Connecting Railroad.") The Hell Gate was the last link in a massive project (built in the first two decades of the twentieth century) that includes the Pennsy's Hudson River tunnels, Penn Station itself, the East River Tunnels and the Hell Gate connection of that main line to points north and east, including New Haven and Boston. Remarkably, this line crosses the East River twice in the space of just a few miles -- one in a tunnel near 34th Street, then again on the Hell Gate Bridge. It was the last -- and surely one of the largest ever -- private railroad projects in this country. The construction of these rail facilities today would cost tens of billions of dollars.
To put this in perspective: the Hell Gate Bridge was the last link in a rail line that allows long-distance passenger trains to travel from Washington to Boston via New York ... in what is now called the "Northeast Corridor." This is the passenger rail line that connects the most densely populated region in North America, and the line that carries a huge percentage of this nation's long-distance rail passenger traffic.
As previously noted, the Hell Gate Bridge was completed in 1917. The United States entered World War I in that year, and nationalized the railroads as part of the war effort. The railroads remained nationalized for another five years. After de-nationalization (and with the rise of the motor vehicle), the railroads were greatly weakened. The Hell Gate could not have been built by the Pennsy just a few years later. As I say, this was the last major private railroad project in the nation's history.
The original plan for the New York Connecting Railroad was even more ambitious. It was to have included a rail freight tunnel from Jersey City to Bay Ridge in Brooklyn. That tunnel would have reduced highly inefficient freight railroad car floating operations across the Hudson River, and would have enabled freight trains from points west and south to run directly into New York City. The line would have used existing trackage through Brooklyn and Queens (that still exists) to connect to the Hell Gate Line in Queens, which, in turn, would have enabled freight trains to run from New Jersey to New England.
The Pennsy's failure to build that tunnel was a major loss for New York City. With the demise of almost all railroad car floating operations across the Hudson, virtually all freight into New York City (from points south and west) must arrive by truck. Today, the only way a freight train from the west can reach New York City and New England is to travel 125 miles up the west shore of the Hudson River to Albany, cross the Hudson, and then travel 125 miles down the east shore of the Hudson River. The enormous amount of truck traffic on the George Washington Bridge (and the resulting pollution and congestion) is a direct result of the failure to build the Cross-Harbor rail freight tunnel.
Congressman Jerry Nadler spent over 20 years in a quixotic quest to obtain Federal funds to build the Cross Harbor rail freight tunnel. Of course, the project would cost billions.... and it almost surely will never happen. And so: the largest city in the United States does not -- and probably never will -- contain a direct freight railroad link to most of the rest of the country.
One final piece of speculation: The five-mile long Hell Gate Bridge need not have been four tracks. (Today, one of the four tracks is abandoned ... one track is used for infrequent freight trains, and the remaining two tracks are used only for Amtrak long-distance trains between New York and Boston.) Had the Pennsy instead decided to have built the Hell Gate as a three-track or two-track bridge, the money saved would have been more than enough to have built the Cross-Harbor Tunnel in the period preceding World War I.
In a few years passenger rail traffic will be dramatically increased on the Hell Gate Bridge. Metro North is planning to introduce direct commuter rail service on the New Haven Line to Penn Station via the Hell Gate Bridge. The project will include four new Metro North stations in the Bronx along the Hell Gate Line. This is a welcome development not only for New Haven Line passengers ... but also for fans (like myself) of the Hell Gate Bridge. Because the Hell Gate Bridge has no present commuter rail service, it is virtually unknown to people who live in the New York area. The introduction of commuter rail service will bring increased attention and visibility to this magnificent structure.
Apropos of this: The Hell Gate is a twin of the Sydney Harbor Bridge in Australia. The latter bridge is often regarded as the national symbol of Australia. Yet, at present, the Hell Gate -- located in the middle of the most important city in the United States -- is virtually unknown in its own country. Perhaps this will change with the introduction of Metro North commuter rail service.
Designed and built between 1912 and 1917 by the New York Connecting Railroad (a PRR-New Haven joint venture). Main arch span 1,017 feet.
People have long known about the Bermuda Triangle as being a dangerous place for ships and boats, but New York City has its own version known as Hell Gate. This name was earned because this narrow straight, where the swirling waters of the East River push against the churning ones of the Long Island Sound, had very dangerous conditions and claimed hundreds of ships over the years, going all the way back to when the Dutch called this place New Amsterdam.
Hell Gate Bridge was opened in 1916, allowing train service between New Jersey and New England. This 4 track arch bridge was the longest of its kind in the world when it was opened.

Opened in 1916, The Hell Gate Bridge, is a 1,017-foot long steel through arch railroad bridge in New York City. The bridge carries two tracks of Amtrak's Northeast Corridor and one freight track across the Hell Gate, a strait of the East River, between Astoria in Queens, and Randalls and Wards Islands in Manhattan.
