When it comes to rock climbing in the Spokane area, Minnehaha Park gets all the attention. But a new trailhead completed later last summer by Spokane County Conservation District and the Dishman Hills Conservancy has opened one of the best kept secrets.

Big Rock - Rocks of Sharon is an area loaded with massive granite walls and plenty of places to climb.

Javier Sparks is an avid climber and works at Mountain Goat Outfitters. He says climbers and hikers use to have to walk a fine line with neighbors who live in the area.  “Before you couldn't park and all and people would hassle you about it,” said Sparks.

It’s located on the south side of Krell Mountain, often referred to as Tower Mountain on the southeastern edge of Spokane. For those who aren't into rock climbing, the area provides great hiking trails and spectacular views of the Palouse.

Can you spare a square? Northwest Harvest is holding their fourth annual toilet paper drive this week in partnership with Alberstons, Project Beauty Share and KXLY. Last year's drive brought in more than 18,000 rolls and this year they hope to double that number.

Northwest Harvest is the only non-profit food distributor that operates state wide and the donations made in the toilet paper driver will be distributed to 19 of their locations. Toilet paper, along with many other hygiene products, cannot be purchased with food stamps. The rolls donated last year only lasted a couple of months.

Northwest Harvest hopes to gather 40,000 rolls this week. Drop off boxes are ready for TP at all Spokane and Liberty Lake Albertsons stores. You can also make a financial donation online or via text. Last year Northwest Harvest was able to purchase an additional 4,000 rolls with the financial contributions that were made.

Send a Friend a Goat week is more than just a fun practical joke for the office, it is one of the Wishing Star Foundation's largest fundraisers. Lat year they were able to grant four wishes from this fundraiser alone.

Why goats? It all started when a friend told Director Paula Nordgaarden about someone he knew who was sending goats out as a fundraiser. Nordgaarden thought it was a joke and when she brought the idea to her fund raising coordinator the wheels started turning. They decided to host the event in April as part of National Child Abuse Awareness Month and Spokane Produce quickly jumped on board as sponsor.

“At first it was an honor to receive a goat,” said Nordgaarden. Wishing Star would select people that had been involved with children and their organization. But now it's become a fun break in the office for goat recipients, Nordgaaden says, “We just create so many smiles, giggles and laughs.”
