We've been trying to figure that out for awhile... there are potentially a lot of good spots but not always snow.
Some people ride up at Timberline but from what I hear that can be real sketch. |

God damnit Florian! There's not even any snow yet. Stop thinking about snowkiting.
Just get a drysuit. Shit, Tucker and I were trying to ride all last winter with 4.3s, at least until he got his drysuit fixed. Yay! Another person to ride with in 38 degree water!!! |

| Broken Top and Tam McCarthur Rim are the best places I have heard near Bend. Otherwise St. Heles area and plateaus around Mt. Adams, as well as Southern Oregn by Crater Lake. |

Are you talking about the pummus desert right before you drive up the rim? Does that get any forecastable wind? |

| I am not sure exactly where, but I have seen photos of a bunch of plateaus and have heard of people who kite there. I am not sure what sensor to watch, but I bet the guys at Southern Oregon Kiteboarding Association know about it. |
