Potential Play Spot at Mirabeau Point is in!

I was recently told by a few members of the
Spokane Canoe and Kayak Club about a playspot
at
Mirabeau Point (near the Valley YMCA) a few weeks 

ago. They call it the "Toilet Bowl" and after
visiting the hole last night while mtn. biking, I 

found it to really be surging and vortexing. 

The water builds up behind the rock point and
then surges at times creating a 3-foot tall water 

pile on surfer's left below a granite outcrop.
There is a small wave on surfer's right. 

If your bored of Dead Dog, want a dynamic,
ever-changing river formation and the chance to
try out your bombproof roll, you might try this
park and play spot. It might even be a good place 

to lose some more equipment. 

There is another small playspot 60-feet below
"The Toilet Bowl" on another outcrop. The SCKC
members called it the 
"Bedeau." I think that is the right spelling in
French for toilet. Have fun boating!
