The Boundary Country - shoulder to shoulder with history, from the high hill country of old Camp McKinney, east to the mountain lake they call Christina. This is the land where historic mining trails pass by a dozen towns of yesterday; Rock Creek, Boundary Falls, Anaconda, Phoenix, Cascade and other towns whose names still ring from the past.
A country where the Kettle river still winds lazily through the length of the region, where the Salish Indians traversed only the open country and the horse trails, and where the solitude of North Fork and the Head of the Lake is unsurpassed.
Here, the mind's eye can still almost see the miners tramping into the gold creeks like Rock and Boundary and driving in claim stakes in the hard-rock country; envisioning another million dollar mine like Highland-Bell or Old Ironsides. And the call from the past is still strong in this Boundary Country - the land of the Dewdney Trail. . . |
