Late summer, early fall

This time of year is always spent getting ready for the upcoming winter: trimming trees, stacking firewood, getting the chimney pipe cleaned, sealing the deck, etc.  It's also salmon season, a good time to crab, and time to gather wild mushrooms.  We have been doing all of the above.  So here are some quick highlights of recent fishing and gathering excursions.

Nice big Chinook

Today's catch was about 35 pounds

For scale, these are the fillets from today's fish on top of our stove.
