The Mighty Spokane

The Spokane River is one of many majestic rivers that feed the mighty Columbia River. In its 111 mile length, it splits Spokane, Washington in half as it roars and tumbles over the thundering basalt riddled waterfalls in downtown Spokane, Washington before heading northwest through Riverside State Park.

A River That Gives

The Spokane River not only provides residents and visitors whitewater river rafting, beautiful family river floats and an array of other river trips that Pangaea runs, it also provides eastern Washington with valuable irrigation and drinking water. The Spokane River watershed anchors the region's extensive farming and timber production.

Interesting Spokane River Facts:

• The Spokane River's entire drainage basin is about 6,240 square miles (16,200 km2) large
• 3,840 square miles (9,900 km2) are above Post Falls Dam at the outlet of Coeur d' Alene Lake.
• Its mean annual discharge is 7,946 cubic feet per second (225 m3/s).[5]
• The beginning of the Spokane River rises out of Lake Coeur d' Alene in the ruggedly beautiful panhandle of Idaho.

Where does the water come from?

The source of the water for the Spokane River comes from Coeur d' Alene Lake and the underground springs fed by the Spokane-Rathdrum Aquifer. The aquifer provides drinking water for 400,000 people in the Spokane area, as well as extensive irrigation water along its course. The use of the aquifer water is so extensive that Spokane Falls, the signature natural feature of the city of Spokane, is primed by this huge underground water source.
