Foto Friday – Grand Rapids Fish Ladder
The Fish Ladder in Grand Rapids is a fascinating place to visit
in the fall when the salmon are returning upstream to spawn. When we
have visited this small park on the northwest side of Grand Rapids, the
fish have been so crammed into the fish ladder that ducks were walking
on their backs to get bread crumbs thrown by visitors.
The Fish Ladder is located in a small park named for it near the 4th Street
bridge. From the banks of the Grand River here, you can see the
skyline of downtown Grand Rapids and the Medical Mile. The view above
is a view of the Riverside area framed by the Fish Ladder structure.
If you haven’t visited the Fish Ladder Park, fall is the best time to see
the salmon making their way back upstream to their birthplaces to spawn.
