The Adam's River Salmon Run 2010 Trip and photo's taken along the way.

This year will go down in the record book for the most salmon to ever return to Adam's River. The big run happens every four years. 15 million will return to the Fraser River and Thompson River to make their journey to the rivers they were hatched in four years ago. The Adam's River is the ultimate destination as many as 4 million will enter and go to to the creeks where they were born. The Major run happens this year and the next major on 2014. The best place to view the run is at the Roderick Haig-Brown Provincial Park In October for about three weeks. This is located between Adams Lake and the Shuswap Lake. For more information google "Adams River Salmon Society" When we were there we had the privilege to talk to the photographers who were doing a documentary on the salmon run for the Discovery Chanel. It will be out in 2013. During our trip we were able to take many photos of the salmon run and also the landscape as the fall colors there still there. This gallery will have a mix of both...
