The longest wooden fish ladder in the Northern Hemisphere is on the Yukon River. This is some public art they did to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the ladder.
The ladder itself is all the original wood, but it has been re-inforced in the last 50 years.

This is a beaver pond where I caught one tiny rainbow trout.
