I found it interesting that there were two scientific estimates of historic steelhead returns on the Elwha - one at over 10,000 and the other just over 5,000. I understand there is great difficulty in coming up with that number but it does remind us that we need to have reasonably good numbers as a targeted "recovery" goal. Of course, that is layman's thought.
