Camping on Latah Creek

I noticed this campsite this afternoon while walking. It is on the west bank of Latah Creek at the confluence with the Spokane River. The river is about as high as it is going to get. The higher water is the snowmelt from the 4 - 5 inches of snow we had yesterday. There will be no surge.

The campsite reminds me of a long held desire to go down the Mississippi River from Saint Anthony Falls in Minneapolis to St. Louis. Maybe I will satisfy my longing by reading Huck Finn again. It is always a pleasure.
