Laurier-Cascade Border Crossing

The Laurier-Cascade Border Crossing connects the town of Kettle Falls, Washington with Christina Lake, British Columbia. This crossing is the point at which US Route 395, the Kettle River, the Canadian Pacific Railway and the runway of the Avey Field State Airport all traverse the US-Canada border.
==History==

Canada has operated a border station at this crossing since 1897, when the prospecting boom was at its peak. In 1899, the Columbia and Western Railway laid tracks across the border. The mining boom ended soon after, and a series of fires (one of which destroyed 6 hotels in 1899 in the boomtown of Cascade City) hastened the departure of many. A large sawmill operated in Cascade just north of the border until the 1930s. Although the Laurier post office remains in operation, the town is gone. The Cascade post office closed in 1973, and the location where the center of town once stood is now a golf course.
The US built a border inspection station at Laurier in 1933, which remains in use today. Canada replaced its 1950-era border station in 2007.
