Got up this morning and headed out to the Salmon River Fish Hatchery

Here they block the River so the Salmon have to go up the man-made ladder to the hatchery

The males and females are separated.  The sperm is removed from the males and the eggs from the females and are fertilized "in vitro"    They are raised in special tanks and eventually released. 

I'm guessing they are called Steelhead Trout because they keep banging their heads trying to get up the ladders but perservere and don't pass out!

Next we hiked at Salmon River Falls

Next Stop Cape Cod!
