WHITE BIRD BATTLEFIELD WALK
A tour of the White Bird Battlefield will take place this Saturday, November 14, at 10am PST. Plan to meet at the entrance to the Battlefield on Old Hwy 95, about two miles north of downtown. Kevin, from the Nez Perce National Park Service headquarters in Spalding, will be guiding the 1.5 hour walking tour, and is a fountain of information about the Nez Perce, and the White Bird Battlefield site. This is a rare opportunity to learn more about our area’s history, and so far, the weather looks to be good. It is advised to wear good walking shoes and bring water.

STEELHEAD FISH ARE COMING!
The 2009 Steelhead fishing season open up on this part of the Salmon River on September 1st! If you need to brush up, or learn about the fees, rules, etc., visit the Idaho Fish & Game (IDFG) website: http://fishandgame.idaho.gov/apps/fees.
IDFG is reported in late July that the "The smallmouth bass fishing continues to be good in the Snake and Lower Salmon rivers. The bass have been averaging 8-12", but there are some bigger fish around for the lucky or persistent angler. Curly tail grubs and small crank baits are the standard offerings."
Interesting read from the Columbia Basin Fish & Wildlife News Bulletin, August 14th:
Folks that monitor the fish counts at Columbia-Snake river hydro projects did a double take Wednesday when the Tuesday steelhead tally at Bonneville Dam was displayed online by the hydro project's operators, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
There were 18,671 upriver summer steelhead counted climbing the dam's fish ladders that day, which fisheries managers believed was the highest daily total ever recorded since the construction of Bonneville Dam was completed in 1938.

RAFTING: Had to toss in a picture of the guys. Today Al, Aras, and Dave G. headed south to Riggins for a fun day of rafting on the Salmon River, guided by Gary Lane of Wapiti River Guides (http://www.doryfun.com/). Can you tell that Dave used to be a professional basketball player?!
