Train ridesincudefrozen treats or hatcherytour Submitted to Go! magazine

W hat could fi ozen yogurt and steelhead possibly have in common? Both are topics for upcoming rides on the Eagle Cap Excursion Train in Northeast Oregon.

On July 31, the Summer Sundowner is an opportumty to enjoy a scenic evening train ride, with a sweet delight at the end. The train leaves the Elgin Depot at 6 p.m., when the scenery is exceptional and wildlife comes out of the shadows, and arrives at Minam just before the sun sets.

There, passengers can create a fiozen yogurt treat fiom Tropical Swirlz and eat it on the lawn of the Minam Store & Motel. A short, 15-minute bus ride takes passengers back to the Elgin Depot by9 p.m. Even if the dayis hot, riders are advised to bring a jacket in case the evening mountain air

feels chilly.

On Aug. 2, the attention turns to steelhead and fall Chinook, when a train ride fiom Minam delivers passengers to Lookingglass Creek for a guided tour of the Lookingglass Fish Hatchery.

This train ride departs fiom Minam, takingpassengers down

the Wild & Scenic Wallowa River, an acclaimed steelhead river, then up theGrande Ronde toLookingglass Creek. Near Lookingglass Creek, passengers board a bus for a two-mile trip to the fish hatchery. A guided tour of the hatchery informs participants about the fall Chinook salmon recovery program and raising winter steelhead.

You'll see how they collect eggs from adult fish and raise juveniles forrelease in area riversand streams. You will gain a whole new perspective on these beautiful rivers and the wildlife they nurture. Lunch is served on the lawn at the hatchery.
