Chelan
|
|
|
| |
Small town Chelan is located at the tail-end of Lake Chelan, east of the Cascades. With mild temperatures and 55-miles of recreational water, the area is a popular destination in the summer. One of the deepest lakes in America, Lake Chelan is slow to warm to swimming temperatures, but recreational boaters and fisherman aren't usually deterred. Reel in salmon, trout, bass or burbot and throw some fresh fish filets on the grill for dinner. Book a guide for some angling time on the Columbia River if you don't have access to your own boat. |

Methow Valley / Winthrop
|
|
|
| |
Winthrop, with a population of 400 or so, is a popular base for forays into the forests, mountains and wildflowers of Methow Valley. Downtown Winthrop is quaint and small, despite the fact that it comfortably accommodates hundreds of thousands of visitors every year. Walk down the main street for a taste of the old west and your choice of 'authentic' souvenirs. What keeps the crowds coming are not the curio shops, but rather the variety of outdoor pursuits in Methow Valley accessible from Winthrop. |

Moses Lake
|
|
|
| |
Moses Lake appears unexpectedly in the middle of central Washington's flat farm country. The smell of earth and onions follows you into town on a warm day, the 18-miles of shimmering lake, named Chief Moses, lures visitors further on mid-summer. Local attractions revolve primarily around bird-spotting and bird-hunting. Moses Lake is located on the Pacific Flyway, the migratory waterfowl route of the west. Vast stretches of water used for irrigation often teem with waterfowl during the winter months. |

Omak
|
Population: 4721
|
|
| |
Omak, Washington is a small town alongside State Route 97. Although
often used as a sort of pit stop for travelers to and from Canada, it
is most famous for the Omak Stampede. Omak is proud of its
Westernness, but its natural heritage is not to be overlooked. The
cutthroat-filled Omak Lake and its trophy-size fish draws many
fishermen and parks are readily found in this pleasantly uncrowded town. |

Spokane
|
Population: 200000
|
|
| |
Spokane is the metropolitan hub of eastern Washington. The Spokane
River runs through town, garnished with 100 acres of park in the
center, an easy escape from the bustle of city life. Many historic
buildings downtown have been recently renovated, preserving a sense of
old Spokane. In May thousands of runners flock to the area for the
famous Lilac Bloomsday Run and flowers fill the city long after the
racers have gone home. |
