A Washington State University researcher has found that the mating habits of salmon can alter the profile of stream beds, affecting the evolution of an entire watershed. His study is one of the first to quantitatively show that salmon can influence the shape of the land. Alex Fremier, lead author of the study and associate professor in the WSU School of the Environment, said female salmon "fluff" soil and gravel on a river bottom as they prepare their nests, or redds. The stream gravel is then more easily removed by flooding, which opens the...

Story by Rick Nelson The Wahkiakum Mules could claim second place in the River Division of the Central League with a victory over the visiting Toutle Lake Ducks. The win would mean the Mules would host the third place team out of the Mountain Division the following week in cross-over playoffs. A loss would likely throw them into a three-way tie with Toledo and Toutle Lake. The winner of a coin toss would host the cross-over game; the other teams would hit the road. The Mules kept their drive for second place intact with a 55-27 win last Friday...
