Where does the water in the Panama Canal originate?
Where does the water in the Panama Canal originate?
I imagine the Pacific since that's usually sometimes warm and it wouldn't hurt anyone's water supply.
In three stream- and river-fed artificial lakes—Gatun, Miraflores, and Madden (aka Alajuela). Water flows out of the canal, which is entirely above sea level, into both the Atlantic and Pacific oceans.

Although bills were introduced in Congress calling for an Anthony sculpture on the mountain, they died when funding for the overall project was cut. The likenesses of four presidents are carved on the mountain—Washington, Jefferson, Lincoln, and Theodore Roosevelt.
