KCTS TO AIR SNOQUALMIE FALLS DOCUMENTARY

For those of you in Western Washington who get KCTS, here is an interesting documentary on the Snoqualmie  Falls (in keeping with our Archaeology Month poster from 2009!). A documentary about Snoqualmie Falls will air on KCTS Channel 9 on February 1 at 9:00pm. The film tells the history of Snoqualmie Falls and eventual construction of the world’s first hydroelectric plant built completely underground. The film features fascinating stories about the Snoqualmie Valley, Seattle, and the Northwest Region of the late 1800s. Through sweeping narrative, a great body of archival photographs and interviews with local historians, viewers learn how the power of Snoqualmie Falls affected the nation and expanded the use of electricity.
