Thanks everyone.
I'm going to be working M-F in the Boise area this month, glad there's a place not to far away that I can hopefully get an evening sesh.

Have never had the time to stop but have seen it White Capping here at
Farewell Bend State Park/Brownlee Reservoir on the Snake River just before it dumps into Hells Canyon and right off of I-84. It is only 81 miles from Boise and has Sand Dunes on the north side of the river.
If you go please report.

I've been scouting Lucky Peak Dam for the past few days but I can only get out there in the p.m. After around 4-5 pm, there's usually a nice 10-15 mph blowing SE near the boat launch but the beach is little treacherous. The sand on land is nice but the head-sized boulders just past the high water line not so much. But I do want to check it out one morning. I'll keep everyone posted.

Thanks, KK;
Wind is big here today all over Boise. I was just at Barclay Bay and conditions were definitely 9m doable.
