Salmon ???

Ship Creek Viewing Platform

150 East Whitney Rd, Anchorage, AK 99501

Watch the salmon run
Every day, spring to fall, more than 24 million gallons of rushing water comes through Ship Creek. It is a pristine creek in which salmon spawn. The viewing platform offers visitors an opportunity to watch salmon run while fishermen attempt to hook them. Remember, to fish in this creek, as anywhere else, you must have the appropriate fishing license. For now, despite regular discussions about developing it with displays and underwater creek bed viewing, the creek remains untouched except for the wooden viewing platform. Admission: Free.

Won't be able to make the salmon derby: http://www.shipcreeksalmonderby.com/
