Salmon Viewing hike on the Applegate River

KS Wild ecologist will show you spawning salmon near the parking lot at Fish Hatchery Park North on the Applegate River. This area is accessible to all abilities. We will then hike about one mile of scenic trail  to see salmon spawning in a secluded area that requires a short off-trail hike down a hill.  An optional trip will view spawning salmon at very close viewing distances near the Applegate Store. Bring polaroid sun glasses if you have them.  Call Rich at 541-218-7973 for more information.
