Order an ImageIn November of 2002 the Seattle Post-Intelligencer completed a six-month investigation into the ecological health of the Puget Sound. They published their findings in a series of articles from November 18-22, outlining the ways in which recent efforts to curtail dumping and pollution had failed to negate decades of human-caused damage to sea life and the marine environment.
In this image, brothers Kevin and Robert Blacketer of the Skokomish Tribe pull in a net full of chum salmon near Hoodsport. Salmon runs vary greatly from year to year.
