Spokane River Forum: Two More Meet Me At The River Trips

One of my favorite events, "The Spokane River Forum's Meet Me At The River Raft and Kayak Passport Series,"  is finishing up for the summer but there's still time for two more adventures. The final 2010 Spokane River Trips:
 
August 28th (5 spots remaining)

Kayak Tum Tum to DNR Campground

Pine covered hills, basalt cliffs, and hidden sandy beaches are a few of the marvelous sights you’ll experience during this flat water paddle.  ECO-Experts discuss native and non-native species. 

9:00 AM – 12:00 PM

September 3rd (3 Spots remaining)

Kayak Long Lake Dam to Little Falls Dam

Put-in below Long Lake Dam and experience the Spokane River’s pristine beauty.  Spot osprey, eagles, trout, and waterfowl. Enjoy twilight conversations with ECO-Experts. 
5:00 – 8:00 PM.

Also, check out Paul Haeder's excellent recap of a trip earlier this month when I had the pleasure of going with the new Spokane Riverkeeper, Marc Gauthier, Tim Connor, Rick Eichstaedt, Kitty Klitzke, and Shahrokh Nikfar to name a few. These truly are remarkable experiences that will change the way you look at the Spokane River, so don't hesitate to sign up while there's still time!
