My gut feeling tells me in my 15 years here it blew more consistently in the spring, starting about mid-late March,in the early-late '90's, than it has the...
I also remember the "good ol' days" about 10 years ago when the Columbia was glassy for all of July and Aug! Let's not hope for the good ol' days too much -...

Hi Pete that Zorb thing actually looks like fun but if we are going to go thru a spin cycle lets do it on the coast. Surfing is still an option when it dosn't...
How about we start a Gorge Zorb competition.... like, we could cruise down the fish ladders at Bonneville, whoever scores the fastest run wins. Ya-huh, and...
Yeah, you're prolly right. Sea lions might play with the zorbs... try and balance 'em on their noses. Might actually attract more sea lions !! ... lions ... ...
Another forecast falls apart for today. Simply nothing from Florence to Rufus and that is as far as Deb and I are willing to drive on our "Tuesday/Wednesday"...
It's actually quite depressing, isn't it? I'd be will to dance any wind dance, pray to any wind god, and spill virginal blood on any pagan alter, if it I...
Don't give up quite yet, Dave.... wind is getting very close to being sailable here on the west side of the Gorge as I write this. If we get more clearing...
