This panel describes how the salmon get up the fish ladder.
This is an area at the top of the fish ladder where the hatchery employees count the salmon, or capture the females to harvest their eggs.
This gentleman, while holding a nice size salmon, explains some of what they do.

The town of Elsa can be seen in the distance.
This is the Keno City Museum, with Mike, who was working this day, standing in front. This building had served many uses before becoming a museum.
