July 31, 2008. Yesterday, July 30, we traveled to Breckenridge and Leadville, Colorado. Leadville is home to the National Fish Hatchery. We enjoyed an interesting visit and learned that they now only raise Greenback Cutthroats from egg stage. It was an informative trip and we got to see thousands of Rainbow and Cutthroats in the 'Raceways.' Unfortunately, the hatchery is extremely limited in what it can do because of a lack of resources. If you're in the Leadville area, I strongly recommend a trip to the hatchery.
