Looks like its picking up. I think we need the clouds to burn off so the city heats up to get the east winds pushing through....the sun is starting to break out in Troutdale now.

Gonna shoot for 10:30-11 at RR

Sounds like a drift launch unless you want to wade through some water to get get to the island up wind.....probably some beach up there to launch from.

If someone heads out can we get an on-site report? It looks pretty marginal, but who knows, could work on some big kites for a bit. All the more reason to get that cam installed Smile

Skamania sensor is E @ 19 G 24. I'd say it's on. Very Happy

Edited to add: Lulls down to 12 now... Pretty up and down. Hopefully it'll fill in by 11 or so. Trend has been upwards so far today.

ugggh, please no pics. Had a great time but would rather put the memories of my trick attempts behind me. Gene was throwing down though!

It was a good day to try stuff, what with the rescue folks right there. Cool watching them train with the chopper, but damn noisy!
