Season of the Wild

The Season of the Wild is back again for its second year! We are bringing back this event as a month-long self-guided experience.

The Season of the Wild tells the story of the salmon, sturgeon, and eagles here in the Harrison River Valley. Every year, the salmon swim up the Harrison River and come to rest in our tributaries to lay their eggs. The spawning season typically begins mid-October, with prime viewing from October through early November. This event, along with the cooling temperatures in the North, contributes to the large gathering of Bald Eagles seen here in October – January; with the peak, eagle viewing in November.
