Guide Review:

When you just want to go up and hit the slopes for an easier day, Mt. Spokane is the place! There are two lodges to park at. Lodge 1 is the first one you hit and is always less populated but doesn’t have rentals, lessons, or a bunny hill. Lodge 2 is 5 more minutes and has all of the previously stated.  The mountain is split within difficulty.  On the left are the black diamonds (harder runs) and the left are green and blues (easier).  The back side with chair 4 is always less populated and has some great longer runs.  Always colder and a little icy but not if you hit it early.  The mountain has great night skiing and overall and fun, close, and cheaper mountain to ski and snowboard. Hailey Fitterer
