Today was another beautiful day on Mt. Hood and especially in Rhododendron. A short drive took me to the Still Creek bridge near the Mt. Hood National Forest's Road 20 and Road 12. This particular location is fantastic for viewing salmon heading up Still Creek to spawn. I caught a few on camera.
For another great place to learn about salmon and fish in the river, stop at the 600 acre Wildwood Park. The BLM park is located just a little East of Mt. Hood RV Village along Highway 26 near Brightwood on the South side of the Highway. Not only are there picnic areas, shelters, softball fields and play areas and equipment for kids you can take the Wetlands Trail to Cascade Steam Watch. This paved 3/4 mile trail teaches you about the Salmon River and takes you to an interpretive center with fish viewing below the stream level.
Now that the smoke has settled with a weekend of rain in the mountains the Dollar Lake Fire should be under control and the firefighters are doing a happy dance. Locals feel we dodged a bullet with the Hood River fire hoping over to our side of the mountain heading towards the Bull Run, Portland's watershed, and the huge BPA power lines hanging along LoLo Pass Road. Around 300 homes were threatened. Smoke hung in the valley and ash covered homes up LoLo Pass we are all relieved. Now the work begins on understanding how this fire blew up so fast and cost as much as it did, around $9,000,000!
