The Lack of Snow in the Olympic Mountains Could be Terrible News for Salmon.....

....and steelhead.

The winter of 2014-15 is shaping up to give the mountains of the west one of their worst snowpacks in recent memory. While many look at the lack of snow this year and are concerned about the economic impact on ski areas and the increase of wildfire danger over the summer, the environmental impact of years like this has the potential to be far more devastating.

The man with the salmon plan

Howard Tanner changed the ecology of the Great Lakes in 1966 when he imported Pacific Ocean salmon in order to control invasive alewives -- and create a salmon fishery like none other on the planet. Tanner was faced with critics and skeptics but he proceeded to prove his theories that salmon species could be landlocked, survive and propagate in the Great Lakes.
