As kiters we have more freedom to search out the goods anywhere on the river, and get away from that place. So glad I'm done with that other sport.

Wow Kip, I even dragged the AHD out this weekend so I could avoid the Event Site and walk down some rocks alone without worrying about strings downwind. What high water? Wink

But yeah, you're right, Dougwena's a magical place. Kite on!

CGKA is correct. Kiteboarding unfortunately is not allowed at the Hood River Waterfront Park. I'll check the signs, but there is definitely a lengthy City Council resolution spelling out do's and don'ts, and kiting is in the second category.

Thanks for the info...When I was last on site there were NOT signs prohibiting kiting in that area and there were kiters launching.

There is a big sign near the steps into the water that says no kites including trainer kites.
