We have a great little Salmon run and hatchery here in Olympia and Tumwater. You can start by seeing the salmon schooling at the 5th Avenue bridge in Olympia, watch them trace there way up Capitol lake and the Deschutes River, and then finally visit Tumwater Falls Park and the Deschutes Watershed and see the hatchery and final leaps.
The Salmon run from early September to late October, so there is still time to catch a glimpse of a few of the stragglers. Prime time is the new moon in September, or so we are told. We are impressed even when they are not as thick in the water!
