在世界鲑鱼之都凯奇坎Creek St.看Salmon

黄安年文 黄安年的博客/2011年9月23日(美东时间)发布

凯奇坎号称鲑鱼之都（Salmon三文鱼), Creek St.是在激流中观赏鲑鱼的最佳地点。

8月22日上午,我们来到Creek St.观看在激流中的Salmon。这个景点几乎是游客必到, 人们感兴趣的是激流中的安全湾使得偌大的Salmon在急流中无所畏惧。Salmon有逆流而上排除万难产卵的特点，这也是人们对这种鱼类景观感兴趣的地方。

Visited by thousands of visitors every year, historic Creek Street Ketchikan Alaska is one of the most popular things to do in Ketchikan. The antique boardwalk on wooden pilings over Ketchikan Creek is home to restaurants, unique curio shops, the ‘Dolly’s House Museum’ & private dwellings, as well as some of the best salmon viewing areas in Ketchikan. Married Man’s Trail and the Salmon Ladder are also not to be missed when exploring Creek Street!

Creek Street is built along the shores of Ketchikan Creek. It was built over the water because it was simply too difficult to blast away the rocky hills surrounding the creek. This is a common theme with Ketchikan as you will notice a large percentage of the town was quite literally built ‘over the water’.

The quaint, historical buildings, boardwalk & wooden pilings bring visitors flocking to take photos & shop among some of Ketchikan’s best shopping in town.

Creek Street is one of my favorite places in town to shop, eat, & watch the hordes of salmon as they make their way up the stream (not to mention, people watch!)

Look at all of those Salmon in Ketchikan Creek!

渔业是British Columbia的经济支柱之一，还有一个是伐木。IT这里是没有的。

三文鱼（鲑鱼，大马哈鱼）每年从太平洋沿菲沙河 回流

(Fraser River, 跟我们学校一样，都以探险家Simon Fraser命名，他发现了从加拿大东部通向太平洋的路，而温哥华是由船长Vancouver发现的）。

威化溪是一个重要产卵地，在落基山的余脉里。从我们家开过来约1个半小时

威化溪的上游，水流已经很急了

三文鱼不吃东西，一直往上游赶路，累死了就被水鸟吃了

一路要过无数这样的坎，不停地往上蹦，总要试很多次

但有时还和看不顺眼的同类打架

上一个坎后就原地游很久，不过水流急，很多又被冲回去了

最后到尽头的河床，刨开石头，产卵受精，再把石头盖上，然后就死了。

头上身上白色的斑都是伤口，路上撞的

今天回来的数目，下面一个星期都是高峰。

Sockeye(红鲑）最多，一般4-5岁， 其次是Chum（大马哈鲑）。Pink Salmon今年不回来了（只在奇数年回来）。
