Salmon Cascades

Salmon Cascades in Port Angeles, Washington is a picturesque site along the Elwha River where visitors can witness the annual migration of various salmon species. The cascading rapids and pools create a challenging but essential environment for the fish as they navigate their way upstream to spawn. This natural wonder serves as a reminder of the interconnectedness of ecosystems and the importance of salmon in the Pacific Northwest. The recent removal of dams in the area has contributed to the restoration of the river's flow and salmon habitats, making Salmon Cascades an ideal location to observe the remarkable journey of these resilient fish while surrounded by the region's stunning natural beauty.
