Each week, we share a Photo of the Week on our social media channels that is taken by a different City Light employee. We’re so grateful for the contributions and new perspectives our employees share. These gorgeous photos are usually of beautiful Washington landscapes, our hydroelectric projects, and more.
With the new year nearly upon us, here are our top five most popular Photos of the Week for 2024! Follow us on Instagram for more City Light content in 2025.

Finally, it’s no surprise Diablo Lake is represented twice. The Skagit Hydroelectric Project is positioned along scenic Route 20, surrounded by the mountains of the North Cascades. It’s a popular place for recreational opportunities, which we’ve committed to preserving and enhancing. We encourage you to take a Skagit Tour in 2025!
