2002-08-21: Picking Again
|
The write-up said the campground was on the Klamath River and it wasn't kidding. Not only is this a salmon fisherman's heaven but also a great place for blackberry picking. If there are berries, you know Al will find them!

|
The mouth of the Klamath River was incredible to see. At this time of year when the salmon are swimming upriver, the shore at the mouth is lined with fisherman hoping for that big one. The Indians on the other hand are allowed to net the fish.
