So I've never actually kited on a lake before. Haven't really had to as I've got the Columbia and Pacific to play in. I have been in conditions when visiting a lake that seemed kiteable. Both on Paulina and East lakes, SE of Bend. East Lake seems to be more appealing to me for various reasons. Anyways, I've heard lakes can be holey with wind, and that is intimidating to me with a cold waters up in Paulina and East lake. Fortunately there is enough boat traffic to probably get a tow-in if needed.
East Lake: afternoon/evening sail when the winds tend to pickup. Boat Launch from the SW portion of the lake to the eastern shores/day use area where the shallow lagoon is and the black beach of smoothed/broken obsidian rock/glass. Black rocks/glass picks up all the afternoon/evening sun's heat!
Anyways, please post details about the lake you're considering kiting upon. Makes for good reading and it is always nice to dream about kiting in other un-kited locales.
Thanks!
