Never happened though, I think there was a ruckus about how the fish might mind it.

Hmmm wonder why we in Washington State never thought of that - all of our fish swim upstream (and apparently love it)... but then again environmentalists that do not want to prevent sea lions from gorging on upstream, up-hopping, and otherwise apparently acrobatically inclined, staple of fish commonly referred to as salmon. They would in turn introduce a resolution along with another rider that would prevent such being constructed and take away yet one other off-road vehicle trail.
