2011 Lower Boise Creek salmon returns video The 2011 Lower Boise Creek spawning salmon video shows large numbers of salmon returning to spawn in Boise Creek east of Enumclaw, just off Hwy 410. By mid-September, over 7,200 pink and 23 chinook salmon had entered Boise Creek with many more on the way. The first thing these salmon will encounter as they leave the White River and enter Boise Creek is two acres of new habitat restored in 2010. The Lower Boise Creek spawning salmon (external link) video is published on Vimeo and should be accessible from all devices including iPhone and iPad. Video length 46 seconds. For more information about salmon returns on Lower Boise Creek and the Channel Restoration Project, please contact Mason Bowles, senior ecologist, Water and Land Resources Division Ecological Restoration and Engineering Services Unit.
