Mmmmm, sounds yummy!! I was actually debating the cost on Mon but I might reconsider! I wonder if the PDX spot west of 205 would be good on a strong east day like that?

I don't know about PDX. Supposed to be a lot of South in the wind there. Makes it fluky and offshore. Maybe Wintler Park across the river in Vancouver. I'm thinking doing the Rooster thing.  |

Is there a beach to launch from? Looks like the water level has dropped a bit.
If I kick this cold I'll be out there tomorrow.

Yeah... the water does look a bit lower than the last time I checked. Someone needs to mark on the wind dam where the beach is exposed!  |

We managed to launch from the beach east of Rooster last Friday. It was sketchy though as the water was high still!! Not much room but we managed and scored a sweet session!
If you decide on the beach, take the dragonfly trail. The water will get almost waist high and then subside!
Will probably drive straight to Rooster on Monday! Should be there sometime around noon!
P.S. Hope you kicked your cold scribble!!
