The Salt Project has just gotten back from the Utah Tourism Conference in Vernal and I have lots to write about, but I wanted to hurry and get out this information about the Kokanee Salmon run at Causey Reservoir! What's so cool about a Salmon Run? Well, for one, the salmon turn bright red and change body shapes. You'll want to check it out on this KSL article I read.
