Spokane spots to consider:

• Manito Park’s open grassy areas and gentle slopes are popular for sledding and snow play when snowfall is enough to cover the ground. Its central location on the South Hill makes it one of the easiest places for a quick neighborhood snow day outing. (Source: City of Spokane, Washington)
