Kettle Falls has a fascinating history. [Go here to learn more.] The original falls, says the City of Kettle Falls Web site, “were magnificent to look at, plummeting 40 feet into the mouths of huge stone caldrons,” the caldrons giving the town its “Kettle” name. But those 40-foot falls are now submerged under the Columbia River, along with the remnants of the original town of Kettle Falls. Along with 11 other towns along the Columbia, the original Kettle Falls was flooded in 1941 when the Grand Coulee Dam opened. Most of the towns simply disappeared, but Kettle Falls was one of a few that relocated – to its current location.
