Index Mountain, circa 1898
Order an ImageIn 1890, Amos D. Gunn bought land on the north fork of the Skykomish River, in southern Snohomish County. He named a nearby mountain Mount Index because its sharp crags reminded him of a hand with an upward pointing index finger. He named his new settlement Index, after the mountain.
This photo, taken by Anders Wilse sometime between 1897 and 1900, shows Mount Index rising above the town of Index, Washington.
