The Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) is conducting an ongoing study of moose populations on Mt. Spokane and throughout northeastern Washington. Biologists will be outfitting moose with GPS radio collars to gain information about how the animals use the landscape and to assess the overall health and wellness of the local population. Park visitors can expect to see low flying helicopters and collared animals within the park.

Mount Spokane State Park is a 12,444-acre park in the Selkirk Mountains with 100 miles of trails and panoramic views from the summit of 5,883-foot Mount Spokane. The mixed-use trails vary in difficulty for hiking, biking, and horseback riding in the summer to snowshoeing, Nordic skiing and snowmobiling in the winter. During summer, trek through Ponderosa pines and subalpine meadows filled with bear grass, wildflowers and huckleberries, a local favorite.
Mount Spokane has an adventure for everyone, from a relaxing stroll through tall trees and subalpine meadows to a challenging uphill climb to the summit.
In the winter season, the park features nearly 37 miles of professionally groomed Nordic ski trails through widely varying terrain for both classic and skate skiing. The Selkirk Lodge provides restrooms, water, tables and a wood stove. Open daily from 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m., Dec. 1 through March 31.
