Following a successful two days on Feb. 21 and Feb. 22 at the Real Twin Peaks 2025 event, day three on Sunday, Feb. 23 began with a bus tour of filming locations and concluded with a concert at the historic North Bend Theatre with Wisteria Lodge and sneak preview of a new film by Richard…
Following a successful first season of David Lynch and Mark Frost’s Twin Peaks, reporters from around the world went in search of the Real Twin Peaks, the towns of Snoqualmie Valley, Washington featured in the show. I love finding these reports from the early days as they capture forgotten details that shaped the region. Jane Stevenson,…
After years of researching various Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me film locations, I’m now convinced if I wait long enough that they will all turn up. This time, I have to thank Debby Trutnik, David Lynch’s assistant in the early 1990s, who offered several items to Julien’s Auctions for auction including two call sheets from…
Seattle-based Lowman and Hanford produced a number of postcards of scenes from Washington state including the majestic and sacred Snoqualmie Falls in Snoqualmie, Washington. This postcard encouraged folks to “See Washington First” more than 100 years ago.

This wooded wonderland served as the film location for many scenes in Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me and Twin Peaks: The Return. During a visit to the “Real Twin Peaks,” I filmed my walk along the nearly…
I love finding postcards from the Real Twin Peaks of Snoqualmie Valley that have a strong connection to Washington state. This black and white postcard contains an aerial view of the majestic and sacred Snoqualmie Falls captured by a former aerial photography company based in Seattle, Washington that was owned by a Norwegian immigrant.
I love a good challenge when it comes to finding Twin Peaks film locations. A few years ago, long time fan Travis Black challenged me to find The Zone from Part 11 of Twin Peaks: The Return. Nearly eight hours later, I had found it (as documented here). This time, I woke on a foggy Monday morning…
I continue my quest to document the many postcards from the Real Twin Peaks of Snoqualmie Valley, Washington. This time, I found a postcard of Snoqualmie Falls from 1906 by James Bert Barton (also known as J.B. Barton).
