This month we take a walk on the wild side with Kim Young in

Lighthouse Country [pg 7] The ldquoStairmasterrdquo trail can be a gruelling assault on your leg muscles but Kim takes the trail in reverse and

ldquoCardiac Hillrdquo as itrsquos known to locals becomes much less daunting The journey winds through a beautiful part of Lighthouse Country and at this time of the year itrsquos also an opportunity to see hundreds of salmon make their way up the river to spawn

ldquoDo nothing so something can happenrdquo writes Joanne Sales in her article ldquoAdvice to People Like Merdquo [pg 10] The comment is profound and could become a modern meme Joanne ponders our propensity to cram empty moments with meaningless backfill Rather than be busy being busy Joanne suggests we stop Just stop and listen to the quiet It wants to be heard

ldquoOkay todayrsquos the last day of goofing offrdquo I said to myself in July 2015 It was the day I accepted responsibility for re-gaining 40 pounds after losing 136 and I wasnrsquot about to gain one more pound to make it 41 Three months later I still have that 40 pound package sitting on my behind and itrsquos time to get it off Read ldquoDuck Walks Treadmills and Blueberry Blastsrdquo [pg 12] to learn where you can join me for some ldquoCuppa Life Storiesrdquo a blog about my continuing journey of fitness and good health

And donrsquot miss John Beatonrsquos poem ldquoWolvesrdquo [pg 19] an intense recollection of his early morning sighting of wolves on his Qualicum Beach property I donrsquot think Irsquoll ever forget this one and neither will you

OPEN FOR THE SEASON

ON VETERANrsquoS WAY ATMEMORIAL amp THE RAILWAY TRACKS


Spawning season is here again somewhat earlier according to local fishermen just as our

growing and harvesting season has been In early September when I had out-of-town company overflowing from my house into vans set up as campers a hike at the Big Qualicum Fish Hatchery seemed like a good idea Ten days later turning off the heat and unplugging the fridge seemed like another good idea but thatrsquos my inside voiceand I am not entirely serious

In addition to the educational and special interest benefits of visiting the Big Qualicum Fish Hatchery the trails running alongside the Big Qualicum River and spawning channels are frequented by many for hiking dogwalking cycling amp even horseback riding

The Big Qualicum River Regional Trail is a well-known hike about an 11 km stretch between the hatchery facility amp Horne Lake Caves Road but for a shorter hike try this

moderate 6km loop aptly called the ldquoStairmasterrdquo or ldquoCardiac

Hillrdquo by locals Did I mention it might be slightly more than moderate if you are doing the loop counter-clockwise or ldquoup the stairsrdquo

My visitors encompassed a diverse array of fitness levels and one of them joked that he was already exhausted from watching the salmonrsquos uphill workout and so the route we embarked on was the

by Kim Young

ldquodownstairsrdquo version one that was manageable for all

When you want the more ldquocardiordquo version or the true ldquoStairmasterrdquo workout you can simply walk this loop in reverse Itrsquos a leisurely trail mainly paralleling the Big Qualicum River on each side of ldquothe looprdquo with few offshoot trails or opportunities to get lost in the bush A whistle or some boisterous conversation should keep any wildlife at a distance a good measure when hiking at anytime but particularly during this ldquoall you can eat salmon buffetrdquo season from September through December

Aries (March 21-April 19) The Sun is now the farthest away from you as it can get Since since the Sun is your source of energy you will need more sleep in the next four weeks Possibly some of this fatigue is from dealing with ex-partners and old friends This sort of thing can be tiring especially if a conflict still exists Nevertheless lovely playful opportunities also exist And of course all those wonderful opportunities to improve your health and your job are waiting for you to make the most of them

Taurus (April 20-May 20) This month itrsquos all about duty and responsibilities Make every action count as much as possible You might have to work according to somebody elsersquos needs and wishes ndash but you can still strive to be as efficient effective and productive as possible You will also focus on your health and you will improve your health however you can This is good advice because frankly your whole year ahead is a party year And when you party you eat well and drink well A minute on the lips is a lifetime on the hips Sigh

Gemini (May 21-June 20) A lovely playful month ahead Just do what you want to do because itrsquos your turn to have a good time You might be involved with children as well as sports events All your relationships with others will be fun and lighthearted Enjoy the arts musical performances and sports events Have fun dining out Stay in hotels Old flames are still coming out of the woodwork ndash watch your step Meanwhile your words are melodious Strong time for writing sales and sweet talk

Cancer (June 21-July 22) Your focus now is on home family and your private life You might want to cocoon You will feel good among familiar surroundings They will you a warm feeling in your tummy You might want to go off by yourself and spend time in contemplation especially with something delicious to eat Some will use this coming month to focus on past family events These feelings might also be triggered

because relatives whom you havenrsquot seen for a while are back in the picture

Leo (July 23-Aug 22) Your daily tempo will accelerate now with short trips appointments classes increased reading and writing visits with siblings and relatives plus dealing with friends and acquaintances from your past Your schedule is jam-packed Furthermore you will work hard to earn money because yoursquore spending it (Excellent to buy wardrobe goodies) Allow extra time for delays and snafus in communications daily transportation trains buses and automobile breakdowns ndash just crazy stuff

Virgo (Aug 23-Sept 22) This is a feisty time because fiery Mars is in your sign Be careful because you might come on too strong If you do ndash others will bite back This month is all about money earnings cash flow and expenditures You might be focused on money and cash flow or you might be focused on getting a different job or changing your job in some way Money coming to you will also be delayed at this point Cheques in the mail will be late If yoursquore looking for new work go back to places you worked before ldquoI knew a guy ndashrdquo

Libra (Sept 23-Oct 22) This week the Sun enters your sign to stay for the next four weeks Happy birthday This alignment allows you to recharge your batteries for the rest of the year In addition it will also attract favourable people and circumstances to you Therefore by all means make the most of this time and use it to your advantage Many of you will run into ex-spouses ex-partners and old friends from your past Meanwhile fair Venus guarantees warm relations with others especially friends and people in groups A friend could become a lover

Scorpio (Oct 23-Nov 21) Because your birthday is just one month away this means you are coming to the end of your personal year As such one of the wisest uses for the coming month ahead is for you to give some serious thought to what you want your new year to be all about How do you want it to be different from last year What changes do you want to introduce One thing is certain Jupiter will guarantee that you will be popular during the next year and that you will also be more involved with classes groups and associations Right now you look good to others A romance with a boss might begin

Sagittarius (Nov 22-Dec 21) Welcome increased popularity and the enjoyment of friends and groups In particular friends from the past will be coming out of the woodwork ndash keen to see you once again Meanwhile yoursquore very ambitious right now And well you should be because Jupiter is at the top of your chart where it will stay for the next year enhancing your reputation It will allow you to advance in your own career or have the opportunity to change your field of work Continue to travel for pleasure while you can Bon voyage

Capricorn (Dec 22-Jan 19) The Sun now moves across the top of your chart and this is the only time all year this ever happens It symbolizes a flattering spotlight on you Bosses and VIPs will see you in such a positive way In turn this will probably attract opportunities to you People will ask you to take on increased responsibilities If this happens say yes because you will not have to do anything extra to dazzle them Good lighting is everything Travel opportunities look fabulous as they will all year Romance is sweet and affectionate while gifts and goodies come your way Sheesh

Aquarius (Jan 20-Feb 18) This month you want to travel You want to spread your wings You want adventure and the excitement of learning something new and provocative In a word ndash you want to grab more of life Meanwhile contacts from your past especially related to religion politics foreign countries or higher education might be back in your life again With fair Venus opposite your sign you find it easy to be charming to others ndash no worries In fact your sex drive is amped because fiery Mars is a real turn-on for Aquarians right now Lucky you

Pisces (Feb 19-March 20) Your focus now turns to taxes debt mortgages inheritances and insurance issues You might also be focused on the wealth of your partner Something needs to be wrapped up and finally finished With fiery Mars opposite your sign now you might have conflicts with someone Fortunately this is temporary because in the bigger picture Jupiter will be there for the entire year enhancing your closest friendships and partnerships and attracting warm partners to you In fact the year ahead is a wonderful time to marry ~

by Joanne Sales

This summer was so intense for many of us ndash especially farmers with the lack of

water extreme heat wild fires Our blueberries ripened a month early At the end of August from the stress I lost my voice I could only whisper so I had to be more quiet I weighed what I would say before I whispered it Do I need to say this Or is this the best time Most often the answer was no When I did whisper to someone they usually whispered back Sometimes whole groups of people would be whispering The summer chaos continued but in the midst of the constant activity the humans were more quiet I rather liked it

After five days my voice came back and a visitor arrived It was a short stay but a comment he made about his life stayed with me He is retired healthy enough well off enough His doors are open But his life was empty He said of himself ldquoI donrsquot have enough to dordquo

I was dumbstruck How can an intelligent well-meaning human not find enough to do with all the extreme need fragile beauty opportunities and mysteries all around us

Itrsquos not that I think our visitor should be ldquobusyrdquo There is an epidemic of busyness in our times and I am both a victim and a carrier of the disease Being too busy is not

a good thing But having an empty life is also not a good thing In both cases one can miss the Mystery

Many people donrsquot retire well It seemed like since he quit his job our visitor was suffering from a variation of the empty nest syndrome This can happen to any of us when we feel we are no longer needed we donrsquot know what to do and the days look empty on the road ahead

Irsquom a mother When my older son went away to university even with two children still at home I got a glimpse of the empty nest syndrome ldquoSo this is how it isrdquo I grumbled Within two months of him going to university three things happened A dentist told me I had a tumor on my gum ndash well that was false alarm My hand swelled up huge and hot and a doctor thought it was Lymersquos disease Then he changed his diagnosis ndash ldquoYou probably just banged itrdquo Later I went to a doctor because of a recurring pain in my leg He said the x-ray showed a tumor on my bone After some serious tests he changed the diagnosis ldquoMust have been a shadow on the x-rayrdquo

My deepest respect for those who did not get off so easily But I learned a lesson from those life threatening false alarms in the two months after my son left home Even when my kids fly the coop even if I lose my ldquojobrdquo even if I have

to go out searching for a new life and source of meaning ndash I still want to be alive It was a crash course in letting go If one door closes ndash get to work and find another

Scientists are trying to figure out why some people find happiness and some people donrsquot

Martin Seligman author of Authentic Happiness describes happiness as having three parts pleasure engagement and meaning ldquoPleasure is the ldquofeel goodrdquo part of happiness Engagement refers to living a ldquogood liferdquo of work family friends and hobbies Meaning refers to using our strengths to contribute to a larger purposerdquo Of the three engagement and meaning make the most difference to living a happy life

No wonder we have a hard time adjusting to changes when we are kicked out of the nest or the structure of the nest changes dramatically or we feel wersquoll be alone with nothing to do

Psychologist Barbara Fredrickson points out that negative emotions ndash like anger and fear ndash cause us to narrow our focus (To shrink) Positive emotions - like kindness amusement interest and gratitude ndash ldquoput us in a frame of mind to explore the world around usrdquo to reach out and expand our connections Given that insight it would appear that the more we shrink the more we shrink

If I were going to give our visitor some advice Irsquod suggest this Do nothing If I were going to give my busy-body self some advice Irsquod suggest the same Do nothing But itrsquos hard to change our ways isnrsquot it

ldquoNature abhors a vacuumrdquo is a postulate first vocalized by Aristotle If we leave enough empty space in a bottle or our days something will show up In our search for meaning if wersquore paying attention life changing messages have a way of just showing up

My husband was a troubled student in high school One day as he was skipping out of class he found a book lying on the floor in the hallway It was ldquoManrsquos Search for Meaningrdquo by Victor Frankl That book changed his life

A young black man now a spokesperson for Niketrade tells how as a teenager he and his friends were off to do no good when a basketball rolled down the street He followed the basketball while his friends stole a car and ended up in jail again and again He thanks that basketball

A friend walked the pilgrimage of Camino de Santiago in Spain She said she had never heard of it but a book about it literally fell off the shelf in the library and landed at her feet

An elder in our community was once a young man in Eastern Germany He was shot as he tried to escape over the Berlin Wall Fortunately someone pulled him through and he woke up in a hospital in free West Germany After he recovered he saw a picture of the Canadian mountains in a store window ldquoThatrsquos where Irsquom goingrdquo He brought his new wife here and the forests became his lifelong passion

These ldquochancerdquo encounters changed their lives and gave them meaning

How can we find what is meaningful to us if we are busy doing meaningless things People have always found ways to ldquokill timerdquo but technology creates a particularly difficult challenge We are a highly distracted population In our search for meaning ndash and happiness ndash technology has a cost

My daughter Hayley got out of high school just before social media cell phones and texting took over the teen scene When she was 16 we moved her onto this island in the Pacific Ocean (ie here) leaving her with a huge empty slate and nothing to do She was miserable and bored She had nothing to do but play piano and sing as she had always done as a child Out of her boredom she began to write songs learned to use a recording studio improved her skills on her instruments Next month shersquoll be signed to Universal Music in the US She admits if she had had social media available to her when she was a teenager this would never have happened But in her boredom creativity arose She is an ardent advocate of having nothing to do ndash and not filling in the blanks

Passions need to be nurtured We have to watch for them protect them and give them life ndash and time

To fill in his empty days our visitor watches sports on television Talk about a dead end job No future there Your soul can barely get a word in edgewise Television in all its forms is so addicting Been there ndash done that One could spend every waking hour watching yet another captivating series No question the shows are incredible But then what

I guess ldquothen whatrdquo is the real question To borrow Wendell Berryrsquos book title ldquoWhat Are People Forrdquo What is a meaningful way

Joanne Sales is a freelance writer blueberry farmer living in rural Qualicum Beach and Director of Vancouver Islandrsquos Broombusters Invasive Plant Society Questions about her articles should be directed to joanneglasswingcom For information or questions regarding Broombusters Invasive Plant Society - wwwbroombustersorg Ph 250-752-4816 Email infobroombustersorg

to spend our days What am I for What I should be doing is the consequence of what my purpose is what my potential is and what I am

It is a treasure and a privilege to be alive and even more so to be alive with resources safety freedom food shelter and support We have it all (Even when we donrsquot) There is so much to do in this short life

Whether we only get one life or a string of them we have amazing possibilities and experiences available to us Our ancestors and the Creative Genius worked hard to get us here and give us this moment Letrsquos not blow it We should serve time not kill it

Whether you overwork like me or face empty days like our visitor we face the same dilemma What is worth it What should we do What could we do

When I lost my voice I learned something in the quiet And now we are heading into the resting time of nature The expansion of spring has moved into the contraction of autumn Historically humans followed the same pattern and retreated more into the caves of their homes and into the darkness of sleep and rest We are healed in the quiet enriched by listening to the silence ldquoGod whispers when He speaksrdquo

Advice to people like me Just stop Reevaluate Life is short Advice to our bored-with-life visitor Just stop Reevaluate Get bored Donrsquot fill in all the blanks with entertainment Do nothing so something can happen Our souls do recharge like the water did in our dry well ~

BLUEBERRY BLAST

Join me at ldquoCuppa Life Storiesrdquo at httpscuppalifestorieswordpresscom

In July I sat down for a cup of coffee and a chat with myself Yup Completely alone My dog

Chika looked at me a little strangely at first but then realized that it wasnrsquot her that needed to respond to the questions I was asking it was only me

The most important question of that day ldquoHow do I get back on trackrdquo

In 2011 I started losing weight It seemed easy then I puttered along at an acceptable and healthy 2-3 pound weight loss per week for months on end In 2012 I was diagnosed with cancer and was lucky to beat it The stress of that scary journey set me back a bit (actually a lot) and I re-gained 20 pounds But the realization that Irsquod had cancer and lived to tell the tale set me firmly back on the path to my goal and I went back to losing weight

I stepped on the scale in May 2014 and smiled I had lost 136 lbs was wearing clothes eight sizes smaller living life a little differently and was happy to fit my butt in a kayak

On another day in May 2014 I became complacent Over this past year Irsquove re-gained 40 pounds a weighty package now firmly attached to my butt Just imagine 40 pounds of butter if you will So now itrsquos time once again to melt it off

The cup of coffee and chat with myself in July lead to a gym membership and to my blog ldquoCuppa Life Storiesrdquo

I invite you to join me online and in EyesOnBC each month to learn what changes Irsquove made and the continuing up down and sideways path to finding my thinner stronger and healthier self through good eating exercise and pure determination

Many thanks to my personal trainer Susan Obieglo of Powerhouse Fitness Club for helping me take the first step in this journey (see Susanrsquos ad on pg 4)

Arlene and I hope you all enjoyed a great summer we did Following is an update on some of the ldquostuffrdquo that is happening in our area

continued from page 7 - Big Qualicum River


Just as with the Big Qualicum River Regional Trail we start out from the parking lot passing the hatchery office building crossing the metal bridge and turning left onto the hatcheryrsquos access road or as the signage states ldquoPrivate Industrial Roadrdquo Follow the road to the left passing under the old railway trestle until you reach the Chum Spawning Channel about 1 km Leaving the gravel access road and the Regional Trail route turn left over the metal grated bridge crossing the Chum spawning channel and left again now crossing the river toward the sign reading ldquoWarning Watch for Bearsrdquo and taking a right turn

Our trek begins here and after about 45 minutes of hiking we will cross the river and begin the return portion of the loop on the north shore Because the south side river trail weaves back and forth into the forest this portion will take you about twice as long as the return hike back to the hatchery which is a more direct route

Wildlife is in abundance at this time of year amp add interesting diversions to this hike As the spawning season progresses through October and November so does the histrionic squacking of seagulls and sightings of bald eagles and herons Watch too for several trees on this trail that display distinct cougar or bear claw marks on their bark climbing to imperceptible heights Just after crossing the river at the chum spawning channel and before the path leaves the riverside we spotted the first of many an old-growth cedar to the right scarred with cougar claw marks The herbivorous beaverrsquos presence is also evidenced by distinct pencil-point stumps and tree-fallings along the way

Itrsquos a balmy ldquot-shirtrdquo day as we amble along but the golden-hued path of maple leafs and the rusty boughs of cedars are a sure sign of imminent cooler temperatures The trail is rustic but does have multiple metal grated ldquorampsrdquo

over low damp areas and wooden steps traversing you through foliage dense with cedar maple alder fir hemlock and huckleberry There are a few spots where the path diverges but staying to the right will keep you on track There are two crossings of the river after descending the ldquoStairmasterrdquo two sets of stairs totaling one hundred steps the path approaches the river once again and a sturdy log bridge with dual rope handles comes into view If you want to shorten your hike to about 4 kms just take this first crossing on the log bridge amp head up to the gravel access road turning right for your return trek Our group headed for the second crossing approximately fifteen minutes further Watch for a fork in the trail and a handwritten sign tacked to a tree which directs you to the right for ldquobridgerdquo A short but steep trail leads to a bit of clambering over fallen logs and up

to this more rustic crossing which requires a bit of caution Once on the other side you can trek up to the gravel hatchery road or as I prefer continue to hike to the right along the riverbank and under the canopy of trees about a 20 minute walk back to the Chum Spawning Channel On this lower path between the channel and the river keep your eagle-eyes open for a ldquoCMTrdquo a culturally modified tree Various modifications done historically to trees are now classified as culturally modified this particular old cedar tree displays a rectangular bark strip scar In the ldquogood old daysrdquo before tupperware fiberglass and other synthetics the removed bark was used by indigenous peoples for everything from baskets and clothing to material for housing and canoes

About this Poem The stanza form is my attempt to convey the power and motion of loping wolves Each verse has seven lines The first three have five beats eg

Irsquom WAkened DRAWN toWARDS the ICE-thin WINdowThe last four have three eg skyrsquos PALE maw OverHANGSThe shortening line lengths provide acceleration

The rhyme-scheme is xabccba The x and b lines have feminine (Da-da) endings These throw momentum to the following lines The a and c rhymes are stressed single syllables The adjacent c rhymes speed the poem and in closing positions the distant a rhymes give a sense of resolution

This poem provided the title for an e-book called ldquoThe Wolves Passed Hererdquo which you can find online It has been republished elsewhere and lends itself to oral recitation ~

There have been recent wolf sightings in Qualicum Beach When I first moved here in

1988 they were more frequent Once for some unknown reason I woke in the middle of the night and looked from my bedroom window across the fields of the Mant farm It was frosty with a full moon

WOLVESIrsquom wakened drawn towards the ice-thin windowto witness scenes as faint and still as deathHow bleak the moon How bare the trees and meadowsSkyrsquos pale maw overhangsearth bleached beneath star fangsNightrsquos curled lip sneers on shadowsof mountains set like teeth

Two bow-waves shear the median of the valleyIced hay-field yields as feral muscles glidendashhoar frost disturbed by wakes of live torpedoesGray shoulders breach and lopeimplode and telescopeimpelled by ruthless credosof chilled and vicious pride

The wolves tear savage furrows down the nightscapeTheir eyes are shined with blood their mission cleargrass springs back shocked to green behind their passagendashtwin tracks traverse the valescold comets trailing tailsleave scarred in frost their messagethe wolves the wolves passed here

EVERYONErsquoS LOOKING FOR PUSS PUSS

In August Anna Sakawsky and her husband were involved in a car accident just north of the Horne Lake

Road exit on Highway 19 Their lives were turned upside down that night -- the trauma of personal injuries loss of property and the disappearance of one of their beloved companions Puss Puss the cat

ldquoWe have been doing everything in our power to find her Wersquove been on the news all over social media ads in the local paper flyers and posters all round the area We have also done all the logical things to try to find her such as calling non-stop and driving to the area every day since the accident (sometimes twice) camping out for almost a week on the ridge where we last saw her night cameras traps bringing the other cat out leaving our clothing around items from home the other catrsquos litter

We have also been in touch with psychics animal communicators tarot readers and even our Ouija board

All signs are pointing to her still being alive and hiding out somewhere in the area But we canrsquot find her We want our story to stay relevant so that when she does finally show up somewhere whoever finds her knows she is loved she is ours and we really want her home with her family and especially to reunite her with her lsquocat brotherrsquo Lucifer who is missing her terribly as they have been inseparable since birth

We are offering a $500 reward for her safe return We miss her like crazy and our family is just not the same without her She was an indoor cat her whole life before this incident and then was launched into completely unfamiliar territory the night of the accident as

we were driving to our new home here when it happenedrdquo says Anna

Hikers and residents in Lighthouse Country are encouraged to keep an eye out for Puss Puss Be watchful on the trails check around your property and surrounding woods

Puss Puss is friendly and may come when called but also may be very skittish considering her predicament If you see her please contact Anna at 250-650-4990 or asakawskygmailcom

have spent most of their adult lives traveling thousands of kilometers through saltwater oceans Instinctively amp with greater than GPS precision they return to their natal waters to spawn and ultimately to die They will swim this upstream battle combatting fierce currents jumping rocks amp leaping waterfalls stopped only from reaching their final destination by death

As the spawning season progresses the Big Qualicum River becomes a poignant visual of this ldquocircle of liferdquo of the beautiful salmon The waters become thick with spawning salmon and in a short time the hardy survivors of this uphill journey become fewer continuing through a watery battlefield of the dead that have gone before them

In life and death a salmon feeds an entire ecosystem They are the foundation of our temperate coastal rainforests enmeshed throughout all species of coastal life When salmon return from the ocean the marine-rich nutrients they carry feed multiple species from micro-organisms and insects to bears and millenia-old cedars Salmon-derived nitrogen is essential to our soils and vast percentages of this nutrient are carried into the depths of rainforests in one way or another by insects birds and mammals all returning the favor of the salmon in this incredible life-cycle

In the last few decades wild salmon populations have declined dramatically It is estimated that only ten percent of the eggs laid by spawning salmon will survive to the fry stage and of this number only two to three percent may survive due to many factors climate change now being

one of them Thus hatcheries and salmonoid enhancement programs such as the Big Qualicum Hatchery have become crucial to increasing the Pacific salmon populations

On your next rainforest hike be reminded of all that the indefatigable salmon has contributed to your surroundings even to the air that you are breathing And herersquos yet another salmon-bearing note when you raise your next glass of vino

make a toast to the wondrous salmon because yes a large portion of the nitrogen found in the leaves of grape plants grown in Pacific wine-region watersheds originate from the carcasses of salmon

Salmon A keystone species - David Suzuki Foundation

DIRECTIONSFrom Hwy 19 (Inland Island Hwy)- exit toward the ocean at Horne Lake Road (Exit 75) Pass the railway tracks take the first left to follow Horne Lake Rd then left again at River Road Continue along the gravel road to the parking area

From Hwy 19A (Island Hwy) - turn onto Horne Lake Road then turn right at River Road Continue along the gravel road to the parking area

HIKING NOTESCarry a small backpack with whistle water first-aid kit and if you like a camera and binoculars If balance is a bit of an issue for you a walking stick may come in handy for narrow paths and river crossings

Dogs are generally off-leash on this trail but keep yours ldquounder controlrdquo as should you encounter any wildlife a barking dog could be an irritant ~

Take a self-guided walking tour of the hatchery Information posts lead the way through the facility and provide

details of the salmon species and work done at this valuable facility Be sure to check out the Viewing Room below ground and get an eye-to-eye look at

the salmon in the channels
