There’s good news in the Klamath River. For the first time in more than a Hundred years it’s believed that Salmon have pushed into the Upper Klamath River. Those waters had previously been blocked by four dams south of the California-Oregon Border. A group called “California Trout” says their sonar cameras were able to capture what was almost certainly a Chinook Salmon migrating upstream. That happened last Thursday. Those fish are born in the river and then swim to the ocean. They stay there for two or three years before returning to their birthplace to spawn.
