Description
ADAMS RIVER SOCKEYE SALMON RUN 2010
(Watercolour effect added. The darker patch showing just behind the dead salmon is a large school of live fish waiting to spawn.)
The Adams River run occurs every year, but every fourth year (called a "dominant" year), the numbers are much higher. 2010 was the most recent dominant run. According to Canada's Department of Fisheries and Oceans, the Fraser River sockeye run of 2010 was the largest since 1913, numbering an estimated 34 million fish. At least 3,866,000 of these fish returned to the Adams River to spawn.
