South east winds, but not the usual smooth SE.
Doug was the early bird with Andrew, Vern, Jim, Jason K and a few others.
Deep enough for some good reaches on a surfboard.
Virgin run on the Space Pickle, to strong at first to be fun.
Had some fun speed runs in the smooth south shallows on twin tip.
Noon lull then it was back up again.
Rigged the 8M and went back out on the SP and enjoyed it.
Gonna be a good light wind board, slow but super stable and fun to ride.

14--11M Lake Creek
Top 3 day of the year,,,again.
Super soft layer of (day before yesterday) new snow on top.
Strong but some what turbulent winds made for some great exploring.
We went down as low in the valley as we have ever gone.
Rode the gully that would be the stream bed.
Tons of lips and powder pillows to play on.

13-- 11M-9M Viva Naughton
Matt and I took the RV and sleds with the plan to go north to find powder and wind.
We nailed it right off the start. We rode the sleds up a little and rigged 9M
but just as we went to launch it lightened to 11M which quickly was to much.
After riding some super terrain, ridge after ridge with softies in each gully,
we ripped back and jumped on our already rigged 9M's
Almost 4 hours of exploring a huge part of the area.
It was what I had always imagined kiting would be like there with strong wind.
One of the Top days of the season, the snow was good, but a few inches of new pow would have been heaven.
Kitequila, overboard,, then a sled exploration day on friday.
We thought a light thermal wind would come up in the afternoon, but it was a calm day.
