#47: (Satellite)
The railroad on the other side of the river was the Northern Pacific.
While looking for these tunnels, I discovered a preserved hydro-powered grist mill.
I found where to look on this map in DirtyFreeHub. Tunnel #46 is at the bottom to the right of the center. Tunnel #47 is near the center. I included more of the map to the northwest because of the water supply canal that I should research if I can ever find the time.

Tunnel 46Sadly the CM&PS mark is completely gone from the East Portal, while the 46 remains intact.Interior is in good shapeThe CM&PS is still mostly Legible on the West Portal.I was told by a local that there is a new rattlesnake den on top of one these tunnels so watch yourselves if you go there. We got lucky but we were with a whole convoy of vehicles rolling through as part of the sign installation project.Near Taneum siding
