From here the tourist may avail himself of numerous pleasure trips. One of these, which should not be omitted by those "who in the love of nature commune with her visible forms," is an excursion up the Snohomish River to Snoqualmie Falls, which, though not imposing in magnitude, is a marvelously beautiful combination of rocks, forest and dashing waters. Provided with luncheon and fishing tackle, no more delightful outing could be desired than a day on the brink of this grand cataract, as we may readily imagine from the scene presented in this view. A company has recently been organized for the purpose of harnessing the waters of Snoqualmie. This immense power will be utilized in the generation of electricity which will be conveyed by means of great cables to the cities of Seattle and Tacoma, and there utilized in propelling street cars and machinery, as well as for electric lights and many other purposes. |
