Not a returning salmon!

The fish ladder viewing gallery will be closed to the public, the rest of the locks and garden will remain open as usual. Here is a link to a previous article and slideshow detailing the history and explaining the process. Keep in mind that the dates in the article refer to a previous year and for 2013 the process begins on May 13. Enjoy!
