Just another beautiful day in scenic Twin Peaks
When watching Twin Peaks one tends to get much more caught up in interiors then landscapes—The Waiting Room? Chic and cerebral! Nonetheless, the Washington state wilderness provided a gorgeous backdrop for a psychological thriller, and divested from Laura Palmer, the gorgeous Snoqualmie Falls look way more majestic than sinister. Frankly the most disturbing thing about the drone footage below is the vertigo it induces—the team actually almost lost the copter trying to get the shots.
Fun fact: For the Snoqualmie Indian Tribe, the falls have a spiritual significance, as they believed it to be the brithplace of man and woman. The mists were said to connect Heaven to earth, carrying prayers to the creator. In 1992, the National Register of Historic Places nominated Snoqualmie Falls as traditional cultural property, but the energy company that owned the the property fought the listing. In 2009 Puget Sound Energy gave up the fight, and Snoqualmie Falls is now under protection of the National Register.
