Temps in the upper 40's to low 50's with plenty of sun. Gradient looks strong enough to bring some nice steady east winds as well. Low tide is at 1 pm so there should be plenty of shallow flat water goodness forrest Since 21 Jun 2005 4330 Posts Hood River Hick CGKA Member Tue Jan 05, 10 11:48 am     I prefer to wait until it's REALLY cold in February!

Nice! GorgeKite.com Since 17 Mar 2008 226 Posts Hood River Stoked Tue Jan 05, 10 1:18 pm    The Ponds sounds nice Sounds better then the mountain has been. I am in. Nak Since 19 May 2005 4305 Posts Camas Site Lackey CGKA Member Tue Jan 05, 10 2:47 pm     High tide of 8.8 feet at 0545, Low of 1.5 feet at 1230, back up to 5.5 feet by sunset at 1645. You guys thinking hitting it really early, or hitting it later & staying to dark? It seems like it's not so good when the tide is below 2.5 feet, or am I wrong there??? Maybe I need to get a skim board! Regardless, I'm in! Chooch Since 18 Nov 2007 1871 Posts Wicked Pissah Boston Tea Bagger Tue Jan 05, 10 3:16 pm     Its great on a skim board on the inlet side...but when the tide gets that low its still great on the south east end of the beach.
