Not yet, but the forecast says we should later. If not, washougal should definitely work as rooster is at 47 now.

I bet Delta Park would work. 8 soccer fields and pretty open to winds down the Columbia. I wonder if there is something like this closer to the Gorge, maybe Gresham Troutdale?

I just drove by there. There's not much snow in the field. But there is some snow in the soccer field.
But not much wind.

I bet jones would be good. But it would be sketchy driving that dike road.

I checked some spots East of Cottonwood and there was plenty of wind but not much snow. Mostly spots of snow with lots of grass showing.

Got almost two hours in at Reed College yesterday! Gusty but fun. I think a good spot would be out between Boring and Sandy there are some good fields out that way. Would have to knock on some doors as most all are private.
