Snoqualmie Falls

We spent the night of October 31, 2019, the day the Snoqualmie Indian Tribe closed on purchasing Snoqualmie Falls, the Salish Lodge and Spa. The property was purchased from the Muckleshoot Tribe. The Salish Lodge is managed by Seattle based company Columbia Hospitality.  It is an on-going effort by the tribe to reclaim its traditional land. The purchase was announced the following day on November 1, 2019. We were unaware of this until the media arrived later that morning. It was an honor to witness this historic event.

With the recent passing of David Lynch I was inspired to revisit this picture taken the morning referenced above. Shooting directly into the morning sun was a challenge. On my Flickr account you can see additional images of the falls in the linked folder Moving Water.

lovely

Looking at these images once again on a gently snowy day several years after the fact and missing you two.

So grand you two could be there on the day of the transfer from the Muckleshoot Tribe. Beautiful photo Thomas – such a beautiful place.
