Histoire
Alpine was a town in the Cascade Mountains, near Skykomish, Washington. Founded in the late 19th century and originally named Nippon, it was first built to house Japanese railway workers. Another nearby railway town, Corea, housed Korean workers. About 8 miles (13 km) west of Stevens Pass, Alpine had only rail access, and was a mile from the nearest road.
