N&T Steamboats NOW1

NOW1: Gathering 200 feet east of the “Then” photo site are (from left) the co-authors of “Steamboats on the Snoqualmie,” Steve Barker and Jack Russell, with 11 Snoqualmie Valley heritage enthusiasts. Also displayed is a three-foot scale model of the Black Prince, the last sternwheeler to ply the Snoqualmie River as far as just below Duvall. Its final run, in 1928, was to remove equipment and machinery from an old mill. The model is owned by the Tolt Historical Society. Others pictured are (standing, from left) Kelly Barker, wife of Steve Barker; Hideko Fletcher, partner of Jack Russell; and, holding the Black Prince model: Jim Jordan, Tolt Historical Society trustee; Gene Stevens, Fall City Historical Society historian; and Rick Divers, Fall City Historical Society president. Sitting (from left) are Maida Ingalls, Tolt Historical Society president; Kris and Dick Kirby, Snoqualmie Valley Museum board member; Diana Anderson Amos, Tolt Historical Society volunteer; Marion Querro, Fall City Historical Society volunteer; and Donna Driver-Kummen, Fall City Historical Society board member.
