Skamania Island is reading W @ 18 - 27... I'm stuck in today, but RR might be a good option today. If you go, be sure and let us know how it went! Very Happy

i rode Wintler for about half an hour. on my 10 good in the gusts but lulls were too big. seemed super windy in the parking lot but not so strong on the water. i think the wind accelerates up the slight hill. Plenty of room to launch and land but you have to work hard to get off of the lee shore in the flukey wind.

I broke free! Gman and I had a great 90 minute session East of the ponds. I was on my 11m and overpowered. Should have pumped up the 7.5 but I was having too much fun & knew it wasn't going to be a long session. We basically threaded the needle between the rainstorms. It rained for about 15 minutes in the middle of the session, but other than that it was pretty nice. Very Happy
