From the other thread:

If you have a waverunner or a boat, you can still access Lyle from the water. There are some REALLY great learning spots around if you have a boat. If you don't, I'd recommend Sauvies, Jones or Woodland until you're up and riding comfortably. Sauvies has the least reliable wind but the greatest number of friendly folk who'll help keep you pointed in the right direction.

The BEST learning spot in the Gorge, steady winds and similar water conditions to Floras lake, is a secret I'll divulge only after my family members have progressed or given up. Smile Or maybe never. Wink

The whole River is accessible near Camas! Very Happy There's lots of jewels to be found. This one is really only a beginners spot, pretty light wind.
