USGS Map: Kettle Falls (1969 ns)

Update: This area has now been developed as Meyers Falls Interpretive Center, describing its industrial history. Water power has been generated here since 1826, making it the oldest continuously operating facility west of the Mississippi. Turn off U.S. 395 upon Meyers Street, driving southward through the town of Kettle Falls. The way becomes 11th Avenue when the way sweeps to the west. After 0.8 miles, turn left upon Juniper Street. Enter the park in another 0.5 miles; be alert, as the entrance sneeks up on you. The descent is just steps away. Among the features in the park are some funky concrete "loveseats".
