Saturday, Sept. 23, marks the celebration of National Hunting & Fishing Day.

Two dams that stand between Atlantic salmon and upstream spawning habitat on the Saranac River, which flows into Lake Champlain, in Plattsburgh are coming down. The removal marks the culmination of years of collaboration among the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Trout Unlimited and other public-private partners.

One of the most important parts of any forest ecosystem is the mighty oak tree.
