Place to see: Chittenden Locks, Seattle, Washington, United States
salmon swimming through ladders at Chittenden Locks
A glass section of the ladder allows you to watch the salmon as they struggle dramatically against the current.
About this place:
These locks provide passage for boats transiting between Puget Sound and the fresh water estuary of Seattle's Lake Washington. In the autumn the lock's adjacent ladders fill with migrating salmon that are swimming in from the ocean to their headwaters to spawn.
