Missing - One Gorgeous Salmon

Missing: One Salmon.  Last seen in Old Town Tacoma on Friday night.  The Old Town Salmon – one of the large public art salmon from a few years ago – has gone missing.  If you happen to know where this critter may have swam off to, please call 253.396.0774.  Any information would be appreciated.  Spread the word.  Photo by Dan Hill

    Swan Creek (like Chambers Creek to the south) is way under-appreciated by this community. It’s great to see Metro Parks taking steps to improve access and environmental education opportunities at Swan Creek Park, even if that means those of us who enjoy it now are going to have to start sharing with more people.

    The main trail at Swan Creek is a great little hike. Very nature-intensive, and quite pleasant. If you make it to the top, the prize is walking the post-apocalyptic streets and sidewalks of the abandoned neighborhood now overgrown by decades of douglas firs and blackberries. Very surreal, and rather reminiscent of Kevin Costner’s “The Postman” movie. I highly recommend this park. However, bring a big dog or go in a group.
