Beach and Launch Open

SEE COMMENT SECTION FOR LATEST NEWS ON THE DAM.
The Spokane River boat launch and public swimming beach in Post Falls are open for the summer. Lifeguards are on duty and the parking toll takers are in the booth. As a matter of trivia, the launch and beach are open almost a full month earlier than they were in 2008 when flooding all over the area necessitated leaving the spill gates wide open at the Post Falls dam until July 9!

  1. I spoke too soon! Seems the heavy rains on Monday made it necessary to open the spill gates to avoid flooding. Avista is saying the gates may remain open and the boat launch closed for another week. :(
