Salmon at the Bonneville Hatchery

After work yesterday we visited the Bonneville Hatchery which is located adjacent to the dam.  The salmon are definitely there to spawn.  The concrete waterways into the body of the hatchery are full of adult fish trying to get "up stream".  The hatchery will soon open it's gates and allow the fish in, but until then the fish wait, impatiently.
Looking down into the channel.  There are some huge fish in the group.
