Now and Then

With the water level continuing to lower above NorthWestern Energy's Thompson Falls dam, remnants of two islands can be seen in the Clark Fork River. Above is a picture local pilot Dave Bennett took this week. At left is a picture from the 1970s, provided to The Ledger by Bill Keller of Thompson Falls. Keller said he believe the picture was taken by former Ledger publisher Doc Eggensperger.
