Just got back from a 5 day trip to Camas Praire in Fairfield. We had fresh snow, 9m winds and some sun here and there. Scored big on the weather, couldnt ask for more. Big props to Brad Gordon with Snow Kite Adventures for being a excellent host and hooking us up with all the great kite spots. Had a awesome time. Thanks to everyone who made the trip and look forward to next year. Will post some vids and more pics as they roll in...

The Camas Valley truly served the goods this past week-end.

Here's a taste:

The Wookie a.k.a Jake Buzianis and Remi Manu the week before heading down to Skyline. No wind for two days, so they built it, we decided to hike and speedfly off of peak one. Later I buffed out the run in and landing with my sled. I shot Bjorn and Remi sessioning it one tuesday. There submitable so you might have to wait a bit. Now it's like a snowman, it's only getting smaller each day.

Nate and crew,

Very happy you guys had a great experience out here last weekend.
To see five people with limited SKing do so well by the end of the trip, was very cool.
Way to have a little faith and make it out.


Cory stoked and tried on the Camas Prairie!
