The Roger Blough departed the port of Duluth Minnesota on Saturday, March 24th, 2012 with iron ore pellets for Conneaut, Ohio. She passed by the Canadian flagged Michipicoten on her way out to Lake Superior. She arrived in port for winter layup on January 14th.

Kathy, I hope your son has a great shipping season. Let us know how he’s doing!
Thank you for the wonderful updates and pictures.I enjoyed watching the Roger Blough on her first trip out of Duluth.My son Ryan Hicks is the Steward on the Blough. You have a wonderful talent.
Is this footage recorded from the roof of the Paulucci Building or one of its upper floors? It’s a great photo angle. I’m so glad you’re back at work this new shipping season.
Mr. Newhams:
You’ve outdone yourself with the footage of one of my favorite ships, the Roger Blough– some of your best work. Rage on maestro!
