DOSEWALLIPS STATE PARK, WASHINGTON

We stopped at Dosewallips SP in Washington across the Puget Sound from Seattle for one night. A beautiful park where the chum salmon were swimming upstream on the Dosewallip River to spawn. The salmon were about 2 1/2 feet long and weighed quite a bit. The river was very shallow so you could see the salmon very easily.

We also watched the eagles flying up and down stream looking for a snack! They were beautiful! We had a nice site not too far from the river.

We people on the east coast always hear about the salmon swimming upstream; boy was it amazing to watch!
