| Snoqualmie Falls
At 268 feet, this water fall is 100 feet higher than Niagara Falls. This location
has great religious and historic significance for the Snoqualmie Native American
Tribe.

You can view
this fabulous natural wonder from a public viewing platform owned and operated by
Puget
Sound Energy. Access is from State Route 202 about 3/4 of a mile west of the
Northwest Railway Museum in the town of Snoqualmie. Also at this location is the world's oldest underground hydro electric generating station. Now owned by Puget Sound Energy, this facility's original generators are still in service! This plant is a National Civil Engineering Landmark and was carved into the bedrock beneath the falls in the late 1890's. The old buildings across the river are the elevator shaft, machine shop, and carpentry shop that all range in age up to 100 years. Please take note that the south side of the river is closed to the public. |
