Spring Creek Fish Hatchery along Columbia River & Mt. Hood
After working for the Forest Service at Mt St Helens for five seasons my gypsy life changed and I took a temporary position with U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service along the Columbia River Gorge, Washington. I was hired to research and write for publication the history of fish hatcheries along the Columbia River. Bottom line, population of salmon declined as population of people increased. And thus fish hatcheries, since 1876 on the Columbia River.
