Help shape the Future of Mount Spokane during the park’s open house on June 24

SPOKANE — The Washington State Parks and Recreation Commission is asking the public to weigh in on two potential scenarios for the future of Mount Spokane State Park.

This feedback will help inform the development of the new 20-year master plan for the park. The planning effort has been underway since early 2024 and will result in a clear vision, timeline and prioritized list of maintenance and improvement projects.

The two scenarios reflect the range of potential projects and proposed features collected throughout the planning process. The goal of the open house is not to identify one scenario over the other. Instead, public feedback will help State Parks develop a selection of projects to prioritize within the available budget.

The proposed scenarios are:

• "Community Mountain," which focuses on improving existing facilities and trails. It includes fewer new projects.
• "Recreation Destination," which includes a variety of new facilities, trails and accommodations that will likely increase year-round visitation.

Learn more about the two scenarios ahead of the meeting by visiting the State Parks website.
