Info on Spokane, WA

Howdy BCP Folks-

I'm planning on flying my 185 up to Spokane and then catching a bus to go do some skiing up in BC. Looking for a good place to leave my plane for the week either FBO or someone whos got some hangar space and wants a little extra money for avgas. I'm taking the bus from KGEG hows the FBO there? Or should I fly into KSFF? I'm planning on coming in on the 9th of Feb. and leaving on the 16th. I could leave the plane outside but a dry spot is always better.

Thanks for any help.

Why not fly up into BC?

Great question. I'm going skiing with CMH heliskiing. They offer a bus from Spokane at a price that is half what I would pay to go to B.C. with my plane. Between the border (which is not really a big deal), the weather up near Castlegar, and the cost I decided to leave the plane in Spokane.

Is the bus going through Colville?
63S?
I've got a Hangar there, if you think that bird of your's could stand sitting a day or 2 beside a 195 and a Thorp there's room.
Also if you need I have a set of wheels you could use.
Any of you guys are welcome.

PM me.
Exactly where are you going, a friend of mine might be one of your guides

I did my Private ticket at SFF. Great field and only 15 minutes drive from GEG. I am not familiar with GEG accomodations.
