Anyone have a idea of how to get to the "KiterBar" I looked around the other day and haven't found a good trail.

At least right now there's a place to get out on an easterly gone bad!

The Rock Creek scarp has plenty more sediment to add to that island, that you can be sure of.

Even better vid.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R1tseFbJI-4&feature=related

Word.
Even IF launching is impractical there, still will be a cool place to ride.
If you die, you can just find your way to Bob's instead of floating down to the graveyard.
That'll go over real well Twisted Evil
From my experience, the swell up there can be pretty fun even in light winds.
Longer swell than most places at Stevenson, small but fun.

Thanks for the pics, kitesailor!
Further proof that if God loves anybody, he loves kiteboarders.
Just what I need to pull myself through till spring break.
How close was the sandbar coming to the bank?

Park at the fairgrounds and walk on the sand right under the bridges. Lots of nice grass to park on.
