One of the best places to see Pacific Salmon in an urban area is Piper’s Creek in Carkeek Park. On weekends through December 8th, 11 AM to 2 PM Saturdays and Sundays, come to the lower meadow at Carkeek Park and look for the Salmon Stewards wearing blue vests. The Salmon Stewards are local volunteers trained to welcome, engage and inspire visitors to the salmon run during this peak season.
The big Salmon Celebration of the season will be on Friday, November 29, the day after Thanksgiving, when there will be a festival of fish, fun and food for all ages from 11 AM to 1 PM.
