Lansing, Michigan

The Grand River winds through Western Michigan into Lansing. The river has six separate level changes as shown here at the North Lansing Brenke Fish Ladder. The Ladder was built in 1981 to aid the trout and salmon in returning to spawn.

Nice shot and excellent commentary as usual Jim. LOL at Laine.

There's a lot to be said for a fish that can climb a ladder ;>)
