- Seattle Neighborhoods: Licton Springs — Thumbnail History (historylink.org)
Licton Springs celebrates a long history as both a unique recreational spot and a commercial crossroads. The residential neighborhood in north Seattle is wedged between the busy corridors of Interstate-5 and Aurora Avenue. It takes its name from Liq’tid or Licton, the Salish word for the reddish mud of the springs – one of the few Puget Sound Salish words still used as a place name.

Denny Creek sports a number of waterfalls, some quite a bit more noteworthy and conspicuous than others. Keekwulee is the most significant of the bunch and is one of the prime attractions along the Melakwa Lakes Trail near Snoqualmie Pass.
