Snowfall at the top of Mount Spokane ski area had risen to as much as 12 feet in March 1964. This scene at Vista House at the summit of the 5,878-foot peak shows so much snow that skiers can walk right up the side of the house and stand of the roof edge. Shown testing the packed snow are, from left, Bobby Holmes; Dick Lemmer, director of The Spokesman-Review Ski School; Ray Hathaway; and Al MacGregor.
