Deer Mountain Hatchery and Eagle Center

Deer Mountain Hatchery and Eagle Center Review

Tens of thousands of king and coho salmon are raised at this hatchery on Ketchikan Creek owned by the Ketchikan Indian Community. Midsummer visitors can view natural spawning in the creek by pink salmon and steelhead trout as well as workers collecting and fertilizing the salmon eggs for the hatchery. Visitors to the Eagle Center can get a close-up view of eagles, great-horned owls, red-tailed hawks, a falcon, and one turkey vulture.
