: A friend told me of a ghost town he found in NE WA
: Wa while out hunting about 20years ago. He said at the time the area looked like people had just
: walked away and left everything. This was near either Metaline Falls of Kettle Falls. Does anyone know anything about this area?
Hi Karen. The closest ghost to "Kettle Falls" in the NE appears to be Bossburg, about 14-15
miles north on Wa 25, and just north of present
Evans. After that, further up the road is North-
port, which is about 20 miles west of "Metaline
Falls", in the extreme NE. Between these two,
was a place called Leadpoint, about 7-8 miles
east of Northport off of secondary road. The
only other ghost (in my opinion) in that area is
Lost Creek, which was about 5 miles south of
present Tiger on Wa 31. If I had to guess, I'd
have to go with Leadpoint. Sorry that's all I have. Bob S.
