CANCELLED: Riverside State Park Hike 11/12/12
Riverside State Park Hike
Monday, November 12, 2012, 1:30 – 3:30 pm
Where: Meet at the Ranger Station at the Bowl and Pitcher area of Riverside State Park
Directions: From I-90 take exit 280 (Maple Street) go north across the Spokane River, turn left at the second stop light onto Maxwell. Follow Maxwell, which becomes Pettit Dr., then Downriver Dr. and then becomes N. Aubrey L. White Pkwy at the park entrance. Continue on for two miles downriver to the Bowl & Pitcher day-use area and campground.
Parking: No WA State Discovery Parking Pass is needed on the date of our hike. Park in the day-use area.
Description: We will cross the swinging bridge and then head south, walking next to the Spokane River. We’ll walk leisurely for about 2 hours, going out and back on the same trail. This will be a discovery hike (let’s see what we can discover along the way) and not so much a guided hike.
What to bring: camera, comfortable walking shoes, weather appropriate clothes, jacket and hat, water bottle.
Cost: Free
Ages: All are welcome; recommended for ages 7 and older due to the length of our hike and the varied terrain we will encounter. These trails are not designed for strollers or wheelchairs.
Registration: Just show up! No pre-registration needed!
What to do the day of the trip:
- Check the weather at http://www.noaa.gov by entering the city where the trip will be.
- Check out the website (www.exploringfamilies.wordpress.com) or Twitter Tweets (@ExploringFamily) for any last minute changes or details from our tour host.
- Pack the appropriate gear based on the weather and Exploring Families’ update (ex. extra water, sunscreen, umbrella, coat, etc.)
In the event of obvious rain or poor weather this tour will be cancelled.
