Conconully is a town in Okanogan County, Washington, United States. The population was 210 at the 2010 census.

History

The name Conconully comes from the Okanogan name for Salmon Creek, /qʷúnqʷunɬp/, which flows from Conconully to the Okanogan River at Okanogan. According to historian Harry M. Majors, the word means "cloudy". Originally named Salmon City after the nearby Salmon Creek, Conconully began as a gold miners camp, and served as the county seat from 1888 to 1914. It was officially incorporated on November 11, 1908.

On May 27, 1894, the town was devastated when an unusually heavy storm caused Salmon Creek to overflow. Debris-filled water more than 30 feet high rushed through canyons toward the town. One resident witnessed the oncoming flood and rode his horse through town warning the residents. More than 42 buildings were destroyed and one person was killed.
