Is that a legit grab? Just f-ing with ya. Way to score the early season session. I was watching someone on the cam yesterday in HR.
Past couple of days the wind readings have been 20ish in the Dalles.
Hey Sella:
getting any sessions up and around there yet? But please don't talk about it if your scoring over on that other sandbar at *yle.

It's on you guys. Yesterday Secret had 3 guys on 9's. Lyle had 3 guys on 9's and HR had 4 guys on 7-13's. Rufus I'm sure is also tasty.
Sandbar is HUGE right now. I was there yesterday and I've never seen it so big this time of year so something is going on with the dam/flow release schedule. So far no "snatch patch" problems so come get some.

Sasquatch, read the latest CGKA newsletter that was posted on here! Take an inflatable kayak or canoe with ya since it's only a 400 yard paddle, don't cross the tracks, and you'll have no issues.

Driving on 84 and looking across the river at the Lyle kayak/raft launch area the water is so low there is a lot of bare land and water cannot be that deep to possibly walk your kite over and rig right now. (??) Muddy...but interesting.
Anybody been up close to give some Lyle recon because the herd has to start moving or any access progress is toast.

Me neither; no more than 6 feet of water separating the two on Sunday night. Took this on a night-wander on Sunday night. Literally walked from the Event Site (with a small leap) to the sandbar;
