STATE PARKS -- Roads and trails are clearing at Mount Spokane, but there's still plenty of snow in the upper elevations and timber.

Warren Walker rode his bike Thursday and was able to accumulate 8,000 feet of climbing -- but he wasn't able to pedal all the way to the top of the mountain.

"The Summit Road is still snowed in," he said in a post with the photo above.
