Salmon Hole Introduction

Getting to the salmon hole is easy. Start on Colchester Ave and head towards Winooski. When you reach the bottom of the hill go across route 2 and turn left, don’t go across the bridge. As you walk down route 2 you will pass a parking lot for the salmon hole and then further down you’ll see the trail leading down. Stay to the left at every fork and you will come out to a big holding pool below the damn. That’s it, you’re there! I choose this site because it gives me an excuse to go fishing for class and it is only a 15 minute walk from my dorm. There is very little growing here as it is mostly bare rock but around the hole there is buckthorn, green ash, paper birch and many other species of shrubs and tress. All most all the vegetation is woody material here.
