The regional edit
One county, many Spokanes.
Spokane Valley & Liberty Lake
Mirabeau Point, the Centennial Trail, Avista Stadium, Liberty Lake Regional Park, indoor play, polished casual dinners — the east-side family base.
Green Bluff & Mead
Thirty family farms, U-pick weekends, Cat Tales sanctuary, and the foothills of Mt. Spokane — the county's agricultural-tourism heart.
Mt. Spokane & Riverside
The county's outdoor crown: a 5,883-ft drive-up summit, suspension bridges over a basalt gorge, ski runs in winter, alpine air in summer.
Cheney & the West County
Turnbull Wildlife Refuge, Eastern Washington University, Fish Lake Trail, and Airway Heights resorts — the quieter, country side of the county.
The Carly filter
