Bellingham and Whatcom County Fun Facts!

January 20th, 2009 by Fawn | Posted in Bellingham, Random, Whatcom County Remembered No Comments »

I am a fan of random historical facts so when I came across an old calendar I had in my drawer noting Bellingham and Whatcom County facts I just had to share.

Below are some of the Whatcom County facts I found most interesting:

  • Dogs were allowed ro ride on the City of Bellingham Street Cars if their owners paid 5 cents.
  • In 1900 a biker path was built from Iowa Street to Lake Whatcom
  • The famous Clark Gable movie, Call of the Wild, was filmed at Mount Baker in 1935.
  • The street in Bellingham that marked the boundry line between Fairhaven and New Whatcom before they were consolidated was “Consolidation Avenue.”

Enjoy the sunshine!
