One of a Kind

The wild salmon and steelhead of central Idaho, southeastern Washington, and northeastern Oregon are an incredible story of nature that began over 100 million years ago.  When dinosaurs roamed the earth, salmon were swimming in our waters. The journey through time and the heroic lives of Snake River salmon make them one of a kind. Snake River salmon travel more than 900 miles inland and climb almost 7,000 feet to reach their spawning grounds – the highest salmon spawning habitats on earth, and the largest and wildest habitat left in the continental United States.

Wild salmon migration at Dagger Falls

On Sunday, June 27th, videographer Skip Armstrong headed out to Dagger Falls and caught the following footage. At 5800 feet in elevation and about 700 miles inland, Dagger Falls is one of the more famous rapids along the Middle Fork of the Salmon River (tributary to the Snake River) which stretches through central Idaho's Sawtooth Moutain Range and the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness.

This region represents the largest and best protected salmon habitat in the lower 48 states.  When we say one-of-a-kind salmon, one-of-a-kind habitat - this it it.  Please enjoy the video and remember to Take Action.
