North Bend serves as the primary hub in this study of the Cascade foothills, where the Middle Fork and South Fork Snoqualmie River converge. The landscape is defined by the massive presence of Rattlesnake Mountain and the strictly managed Cedar River Watershed, a territory marked by hydroelectric infrastructure like the Masonry Pool and Penstocks near Cedar Falls. This 1993 revision documents the area’s evolution from early industrial outposts to a managed wilderness and recreation corridor. Genealogists and local historians can pinpoint several significant former settlements, including Kerriston and Hemlock, alongside rail-dependent locations such as Barneston and Selleck. The presence of the Burlington Northern line and numerous borrow pits reflects a century of resource extraction and transport that shaped these mountain valleys.
