Copper River IS HERE!
It's one of the most anticipated seasons of the year; the Copper River Salmon run. And the wait is FINALLY over. And this year is forecasting to be one of the best runs since the 80's! Every year the King, Sockeye and Coho Salmon all make the 300 mile long travel to their spawning grounds of the Copper River and its 13 major tributaries. At a mile wide in areas, an average 7 miles per hour flow and an average drop of 12 feet per mile, the Copper River is the 10th largest in the United States. These salmon certainly don't have an easy travel ahead of them. In order to sustain enough energy to make it the full stretch, the fish store extra omega-3 fatty acids. Which is exactly what makes the Copper River run so desirable and the salmon some of the most prized in the world. The nutrition, size and flavor of these fish is unmatched. NOW, you can take some home and see for yourself just what makes this run something to mark on your calendar ever year!

Camping Season
Camping season is finally upon us and the Northwest offers up some of the most beautiful camping sites around. But nothing's worse then getting all the way up to your campsite and realizing you forgot something... This year don't let that happen to you. Take a few extra steps to ensure your camping trip goes off without a hitch. For example, make a list of all the things you'll need to bring with you. Tents, sleeping bags and cooking utensils are probably some of the more obvious items. But be sure to remember some of the smaller things like matches for your campfire, water and bug spray. If the weather is going to be nice don't forget sunscreen. And pack your food up in paper bags so that you can burn them afterwards. Packing early also helps you be more prepared in case you do forget to add something to the list and makes it less stressful. The whole point of camping, is to go enjoy yourself, so don't stress before you even go! And always remember to leave your campsite as clean or cleaner than when you got there. Make the next person's experience as enjoyable as yours was. Happy Camping!
