- Salmon Ladder - Learn about the five different species of Salmon we have in Ketchikan, while viewing the Salmon swimming and jumping up a raging creek to reach their spawning grounds to lay their eggs.
- Ketchikan - We will stop at Rainbow Falls known for its mist caused by the raging waterfall. If it is a sunny day the mist creates a rainbow across the falls, hence the name. It is a fantastic photo opportunity.
