salmon

Carkeek Park is a great place to closely observe salmon spawning, particularly chum and coho salmon, which typically return to Piper’s Creek from late October through early December. We'll watch the salmon struggle upstream to lay their eggs. A volunteer Salmon Stewards may be available to provide information and enhance the experience.

The salmon run in 2024 was historic, with as many as 1,500 salmon entering Piper's Creek in a single day. Will 2025 be as big? Let's find out!

Van transportation will be provided. Van leaves GSC at 1:30 pm.

WHERE: Carkeek Park, 950 NW Carkeek Park Rd. Meet at bottom parking lot (near the railroad bridge).
