We visited here when we visit camped at Cascade Locks Marine Park - super impressive! I could have sat and watched the fish swim up the ladder for hours - not sure why 😂
Very neat piece of working hisory for young and older ppl to check out. Great for a day trip outing, dam, fish, picnic. My kinda day. TY. Happy 4th!😊🇺🇸👍👍
That was me going by you on my motorcycle. Lol. Glock 40. A lot of the stuff was built by the Civilian Conservation Corp. Look up “Herman the Sturgeon” Oregon’s famous sturgeon.
🎇🎆🇺🇸Happy 4th to my favorite UA-camr! And a 🎇🎆HUGE CONGRATULATIONS on 20,000 subs!🎆🎇 👍😀🤣😆💙👏👏 Impressive facility. I appreciate and envy all the walking you do for us. Thanks for sharing! Have great holiday Russ!🌻
there's another visitor center on the Washington side, Russ. it has a bigger underwater fish observation area - many more windows. you really need to take a week to explore this area! happy travels, enjoy your videos.
being a drone pilot myself, I think that anywhere they ban flying a drone, they should be required to fly their own drone and post quality aerial footage on their web site for those people who want the aerial view.
I wish they would take down all dams on all the rivers. Put in solar panels and windmills to create power. Give the fish a chance to go all the way up the rivers. In the 1980s we had big king salmon fishery in California. 30lbs and up size salmon were caught in monterey bay. Nowadays 2020 21 inch king are keeper. You rarely see 30lbs salmon in the Monterey bay and outside san Francisco bay. Take the dams down so salmon can survive as they did.
Hate to say it but terrible camera work. You didn't stay long enough at each spot for the viewers to get an overall view, which only lasted a few seconds.. The viewing window is cool and we didn't get to see but only 10 seconds of it and the outside fish ladder with steelhead and salmon navigating the riffles as well.. You panned over instead of focusing on one ladder so we could see the fish coming up.. Oh well.
My granddad helped build Bonneville dam. He met my grandmother there. She was teaching the native kids. My roots go deep in the gorge.
My wife's worked here for 43 years.
please pass on my appreciation, visited recently on a road trip and it’s a lovely little island ^^
Boy those fish were going full steam!! Visited over 50 years ago! Thx!
This was amazing to watch especially all the shore lunch running in the ladder and viewing area. I've never seen anything like this before. Thank you.
There's also a fish hatchery you can tour free. Great place to take the family. CCC built the dam and hwy 30 above it. It's also a very nice drive.

Thanks Russ.
Pleased you have reached 20,000 subscribers Russ! and what could be better than achieving that on the 4th July!! Well Done!
Maybe a week before filmed this I was hiking on the Washington side at beacon point, it overlooked the dam. It was amazing
When I was growing up, they called it the McNary Dam.
No, McNary dam is upriver at Umatilla.
Very neat piece of working hisory for young and older ppl to check out. Great for a day trip outing, dam, fish, picnic. My kinda day. TY. Happy 4th!😊🇺🇸👍👍

There are different seasons for different fish. It is all explained inside the visitor center.
