With south wind this strong, I would think Kalama would be ideal with side-shore conditions. Maybe Woodland/exit 22 as well. He'll, do a south downwinder up to Kalama-Rama.

*Scoff* at too much wind - as long as it's steady... I miss your warm winds & water..

Short (nothing special) clip of 50+mph here in Turnagan Arm. It is always sketchy and very tiring keeping the kite under control - it moves soooooo fast.
