Incredibly accessible, easy to find climbing. Decent range of skill levels. Beautiful scenery on the river.

Right off the Wawawai River Road, Granite Point is an incredibly accessible climbing spot for those in the Pullman, Washington or Moscow, Idaho area. A mere minute hike from the car to the climbing spot makes it very easy to bring all of your gear. Hiking from the bottom of the rock to the top, to set up a top rope only takes also just a few minutes.

Rock Climbing at Granite Point

A nice range of routes available, nothing too hard though, and easy to set top-rope anchors by walking around to the top of the cliffs- very accessible. However, it can get very busy at the beginning of the school year, and at the end, so I would avoid the place in late August and late April/early May as it is a fun cliff jumping spot (into the Snake River) and a lot of WSU students gather to party.

Visit Kamiak Butte Park

Formerly a Washington State Park, Kamiak Butte County Park is a hidden treasure on the eastern border of the state. An "ecological island" rising more than 800 ft from the surrounding hills of Palouse, the butte is home to a high country desert on its southern side and a lush forest on its shaded northern side. The park features a 3.5 mile loop trail that takes you to the summit of the butte w...

Explore Steptoe Butte

To the layperson, the Palouse, an area that comprises some 4,000 square miles in parts of Washington and Idaho, looks to be rolling hills of grass. In fact, the Palouse is a complex geological wonder. And there is no better place to view the Palouse than from Steptoe Butte, which is located in the Steptoe Butte State Park in Washington (Whitman County).The vast majority of what people see on th...

Explore Palouse Falls

Back in early 2014, a group of fifth-graders from nearby Washtucna, Washington were able to convince the governor to name Palouse Falls the official State Waterfall.These miniature John Muirs were on to something.Palouse Falls is every bit as accessible as it is spectacular. From the parking lot, walk about 50 feet to an overlook with interpretive signs and sturdy fences to guard you from the m...

A broken down, graffiti covered, abandoned school bus! Located 7 miles southwest of Washtucna, WA resides the social media named & famed, #thatnwbus. It's easy to find, easy to walk to and very close to Palouse Falls; a very popular and stunning Washington attraction. The bus is right off of Highway 260. If you're headed northeast, it will be on your right. Parking is easier from this direc...

Hog Lake Loop

Leaving Spokane and driving west down Interstate 90 isn’t usually where one might envision pretty nature existing. Yes, the farms and desert are pretty in their own way, but most people don’t want to go hiking on a farm. This area has some real hidden treasures though. To get to Hog Lake from Spokane, drive west on Interstate 90 and take exit 254 for Fishtrap/Sprague Highway and turn left. Les...

Hike along Iller Creek

Iller Creek hike leads you on a 5 mile loop through lush shaded forest to a ridge with excellent views of the Eastern Washington Palouse. I love the variety of trees through the forest on this hike! Half way through the hike you reach the Big Rocks (Rocks of Sharon) which is a popular rock climbing destination! Continue on through the loop back through a birch forest. I like to hike this lo...
