  NM21-765-098 Spokane, Washington, U.S.A. Winter 1995-1996
Spokane, located on the falls of the Spokane River 18 miles (29 kilometers) west of the Idaho border, is featured in this northeast-looking, low-oblique photograph. Spokane is the gateway to an extensive recreational region and to a number of national and state parks. Spokane's commercial interests include food packaging; aluminum smelting; metal refining; and manufacturing of electrical equipment and lumber, paper, clay, and cement products. The irrigated farms of the surrounding Columbia Basin also contribute to the city's prosperity. Fairchild Air Force Base, west of the city, is visible near the bottom center of the photograph. Interstate Highway 90 traverses the city in an east-west direction.
