Hey guys,

Depending on the wind I'll probably try to hit the Gorge on Tuesday (or Wed as backup). I'll shoot for leaving 2:30-3pm from Beaverton and probably go to Hood River so I can session the slider some more. Tue and Wed is probably best bet for wind in the extended. Lemme know if you wanna carpool.

Hey Gene - I'll probably be out there Wednesday later in the day - going hiking in the AM. I'll bring the Nikon if you bring the STEEZ Wink. I want some hits on that slider Twisted Evil

Shit... I want to go out today, but the rain/cloud forecast doesn't look so hot. Might just hold off until tomorrow. Sad

Looks like today (Tuesday) its going to rain out in hood river. People still going to try and hit it.

If i lived in HR i think it would be worth it - but making the drive from beaverton - not so good.

Yea, it's looking pretty gray outside. I don't really associate complete cloud cover with a good day. It will be cold. Tomorrow's forecast looks way better.

COOL - Thanks Forrest - I'll look for you out there. I'm only going to hit it if you guys are around and it's not set up TOO crazy - C

Yeah, not looking super hot today. And, I was all pumped to try some new moves. Probably shoot for tomorrow (Wed) unless it clears up and starts blowing in the next three hours. At least I can go and pet my boards in my car during lunch break.

Looks like Wed should have some sunshine and steadier wind. Gonna check it tomorrow, but if it looks good might head to HR a bit after 2pm from Beaverville. Can easily take one more in my car.

Then Thur-Fri look like hot Easterlies (and not only 'cause of the VS at Rooster). Anyone interested in some dawn patrol action? Otherwise maybe later in afternoon could still work.

Thanks Phil. I take advice only from the best.

Also, looks like coast might be on with some N winds and 9-10ft swell Thur-Fri. Why is this all happening during the work week??? Might be time to weasel out of work early and hit the coast as well.

be wary of 1-2 day northerly forecasts for the north coast - maybe manzo south
