| 6/15/2026 5:00 PM | Huntington Park Cleanup | Conservation | Last year, 40 Mountaineers volunteers pulled 1,400 lbs of trash out of Huntington Park. It was a blast & we're going back for more! Join us and Spokane Riverkeeper on June 15th for an evening of real work at one of the city's best spots. We'll be clearing trash throughout the park, along the river, and into the technical zones around the Spokane Falls and Monroe Street Bridge that most volunteer crews can't reach — that's where our rope skills make the difference. Date: Monday, June 15 | 5:00–8:00 PM Location: Huntington Park, Spokane Bring: Gloves, harness/helmet (if you have them & want to use them), sunscreen/hat/sun protection. Suggested: long pants and grippy closed-toe shoes. Provided: Garbage bags, pickers, water, and snacks Please register so we can plan headcount. Can't make it right at 5? Come when you can. Free Parking will be available in the same lot across the river we used last year on Lincoln Street. Will get address and update this event this week. |

The trail is well maintained with rolling terrain, excellent views along the way as well as from the summit of Mt. Kit Carson where we will stop for a snack. While this is considered an easier trail, I highly recommend it for heavy pack training for those who have not yet hiked at a higher elevation and/or with a loaded pack to practice balance. Bring water, snacks, bug spray, and trekking poles are helpful for hip/knee issues. Leashed and well-socialized dogs are allowed, owners must practice Leave No Trace. Members with questions can find my contact info on the website or message me. |
