Metaline Falls

Among the towns of northeastern Washington, Metaline Falls stands out for its compact mining-era center beside the Pend Oreille River. Lead and zinc mining shaped the community in the early 20th century, and brick commercial buildings still reflect that industrial past. The Cutter Theatre, in a building completed in 1912, remains a venue for performances and local events. Forested slopes of the Selkirk Mountains surround this far-northeastern corner of the state, where the river corridor connects small communities.
