The Cariboo Dam 'Fishway' is ready and waiting for the Salmon

Wow! I can't believe how long it's been since I made a post.

It was such a delight it was to go the Cariboo Dam Fish Ladder (refered to now as a 'fishway') in Burnaby even if there were no salmon spawning just yet.

Also, today had to have been one of the busiest dog spotting day I've had in ages.

I didn't get any fish traffic making its way up the redesigned 'fishway', but I did get a few other photos, including an assortment of dogs walking their humans. And it was a beautiful day to be walked.

I haven't a clue what they were, but they're so cute.

It's almost over.

This year's spawners will use this to get home.

Keep a look out!

Mother nature will take hold anywhere.

Snow came early this year.

I really want to go back a few more times to see if we can catch the salmon coming home. The dam platform was pretty crowded today - I can imagine what it will be like when the fish are running. It might prove a challenge to spot any. But I'll do my best to get in there to capture the annual event.
