Colville, WAshington
A Northern Outpost of the Inland Empire
In the early 1900s, Colville served as a key supply center for the northern reaches of the Inland Empire. Ranchers, timber crews, and mining operations across Stevens County relied on Colville’s mills, freight depots, and merchants, while rail lines carried their goods south toward Spokane. As the region’s industries expanded, Colville’s position along these routes helped link frontier communities to the commercial heart of the Inland Northwest, strengthening the economic network that shaped Spokane’s rise.
