Treaty Rock Volleyball Classic

THE NAME TREATY ROCK

With the exception of the falls itself, Treaty Rock is the most famous local landmark in Post Falls, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, as is the Washington Water Power bridge that crosses in front of the falls. (LINK) You will see signs on Interstate 90 and around town identifying the location. In 1871 Frederick Post (the founder of Post Falls) and Chief Andrew Seltice (of the Coeur d'Alene Indian Tribe) signed a treaty on the rocks overlooking the falls, whereby Post bought the Spokane River channels and falls that now bear his name. The treaty and some Native American pictographs are still visible at the site. The town grew up around the site where Post built a dam and mill. The falls are visible from the east-bound lanes of Interstate 90 approximately 1/4 mile before Exit #5.

The city's major east-west street, Seltice Way, is named for Chief Andrew Seltice.
