Mill Dam
Ohio History
Sandusky River Dam
The brand-new, modernized dam in the river was quite a contrast to the old mill and bridge! (It can also be seen in the first picture of my last post.) It was recently rebuilt and features a unique “ladder” which allows migrating salmon to get upstream across the dam. Don’t ask me how it works! The Sandusky River was beautiful that crisp winter day, sparkling in gorgeous sunshine.

How does it work?
Certainly doesn't look like dams you see being biult today.
Somehow the dam makes it easier for the salmon to jump up the falls to get upriver. It was called a "salmon ladder."
