§ 02 — OVERVIEW
Nestled east of Post Falls, Idaho, the Bureau of Land Management’s Ross Point Day Use Site offers an easily accessible escape from the bustle of the Spokane/Coeur d’ Alene metropolitan area. The site provides public access on a highly privatized section of the Spokane River for family activities including picnicking, fishing, swimming, kayaking and paddleboarding.
Mature ponderosa pine trees shade picnic tables delightfully incorporated into native shrubs, small trees, and grasses on the eastern side of the site. To the west, an irrigated grass lawn extends to the western boundary, lending itself to bare feet and picnic blankets. As the slope downward draws attention to the river, an accessible meandering walkway takes visitors to information kiosks and an event pavilion. The pathway continues to bend down toward the shoreline of the river where a small sandy swimming area is protected from the high seasonal fluxes in river discharge by bank stabilizing rock and a composite fishing dock. The site has twelve single vehicle parking spaces. The parking area cannot accommodate large vehicles including, trailers, RVs, or busses. Visitors can enjoy Ross Point throughout the week from dusk to dawn. The Ross Point Day Use Site is co-managed through a partnership between the Post Falls Parks and Recreation Department and the BLM. Additional information, including pavilion reservation, can be found on the Post Falls Parks and Recreation Department site.
