Know Before You Go:
Walk down the path along the highway to a bridge that overlooks Bird Creek.
Be careful about going too close to the creek as the creek bank is extremely slippery.
Stop by from July to September to witness an incredible run of Silver Salmon swimming upstream.
This is an extremely popular fishing spot - but be sure you have the correct fishing license!
Pay stations (credit card compatible) are in the parking lot; you can also skip the hassle to buy an annual Alaska State Parks Pass if you are in Alaska for an extended period of time.
