Cool story, Chinook salmon negotiate many obstacles to swim higher into their natal headwaters than some believed. Does not surprise me, I've seen steelhead, for example, above waterfalls I thought no fish could possibly ascend. One reason I'm fascinated by salmon and steelhead.

When the route goes through a moat. On Three Fingers in 2007. Photo was taken by Joshua Trujillo, a terrific photographer I worked with for several years. #FootpathFriday #Hiking #AltText
Boy, Masto is super clunky yesterday and today. Lot of 503 error messages. I view it on the web, probably better on an ap. 🤨

Gluesenkamp needs to be booted out of Congress forever. Absolutely disgusting.

I had to leap first before my two boys would follow, Lake Chelan around 2007. #ThrowbackThursday.
Disappointed to get zero photos of several yellow warblers and a few rails I saw this morning, I think rail chicks too! But found a few things holding still. #Hiking #AltText

🚨 Alert 🚨

"I don't say this lightly. This is straight up criminal."

Watch this short explainer by Liz Oyer, former pardon attorney for the DOJ, on the $1.8 billion #slushfund robbery, and share it widely.

"This is a theft of our property. It is a fraud on the American people. It is a criminal conspiracy at the highest levels of our government"

"Please do whatever you can to spread the word and sound the alarm. Thanks."
