2014 egg collection efforts started at 8am this morning. As the egg collection program, I will record the numbers I am given from Grant McAlpine to this post.

Please note: Egg collection is dependent on water clarity, temperature, weather and water flow conditions. We will be posting egg collection notices on our Facebook and Twitter accounts.

Next Scheduled Lift

Next lift is unknown. The rising water conditions will be evaluated tomorrow morning.
