Busman"s Holiday today. As the saying goes. The only thing is we have had 3 days off, as far as moving day is concerned. Today we drove about 7 miles up the
Snake River to Ice Harbor Lock and Dam. Toured the fish ladder and watched the Silver Salmon go thru the ladder that has been made along side the dam. This allows the salmon and steelhead to travel up stream to spawn where they were hatched. The salmon can travel up the Snake River as far as Hell's Canyon Dam (Idaho). The salmon can go up the Clearwater River (Idaho) to it's source. On the Columbia River the salmon can go as far as Chief Joseph Dam where the fish ladders were not provided. This dam and Grand Coulee Dam did not provide ladders as they were built before the realization of salmon returning to there spawning ground were so important.

We headed on up the Snake River to Lee's Ferry where we crossed to the north side of the river. Our destination is Palouse
Falls. We have never been there. It was a dirt road into the falls but was worth all the time it took to get there. The falls were in full. Not sure what the drop on the falls is but a long way. Sent a while and had something to drink and just watch the water fall into the pond and river below. It is about 150 mile's round trip but was worth every mile.

Tomorrow we will head toward Steamboat Rock State Park on Banks Lake.
