A fun visit!

I visited here on my way back from Yellowstone.

The fish hatchery is a really fun educational stop. It’s suitable for all ages.

If you go at the right time of the year they have hands on activities for the whole family.

I did not see the camping sports while I visited but I will look out for them next time for sure!
