St Pauls Mission. Found this little mission tucked back into the woods behind a really cool museum. The mission was started in 1845 and built to convert the Native Americans to Catholisism. This current structure was rebuilt in exactly the same way in 1939.

 

 

Roy really enjoyed the crafmanship that went into this building.

 

Only metal in the building were these hinges

 

 

Square wooden dowles

 

 

The site of Ft Colville is actually underwater now.

 

 

Area was recently thinned for the lumber. They did a good job.

 

Stayed at Kettle Falls Campground. There are no Kettle Calls because when the dam was built the area was flooded to create this man-made lake. In the background is a lumbermill.

 

Franklin Roosevelt Lake.
