Looking for a more active autumn pastime? What are your thoughts on snorkeling with salmon?⁠ ⁠ Writer hikeupyourskirt shares her experience bobbling through rapids in the Campbell River–sometimes dubbed the “salmon capital of the world”–to see the kaleidoscope of pink, coho, and chinook salmon.⁠ ⁠ “At the surface, you're dodging untethered globs of moss and the occasional floating fish guts. But look down, and it’s all salmon, all the time,” she says. “While they're pink and colorful on land, underwater, they dart by in shades of sparkling blue, silver, and white.” ⁠ ⁠ And if you’re lucky, the occasional curious salmon may try to go eye-to-eye with you as you’re flying down the river in your snorkel and mask, fins, and 7-millimeter thick wetsuit. Pro tip: You’ll also want to watch out for bears…⁠ ⁠ Would you try this?
