Fish Ladder

This is the fish ladder I mentioned in a couple of recent posts. Bonneville cutthroat trout exit Bear Lake and work their way up the ladder to enter St Charles creek where they spawn. Wild Cutthroats were nearly extinct in Bear Lake before several projects restored access to spawning streams. Ice covers most of each section of the ladder this time of year.
