    First trip up to Sp'akw'us Feather Park. Did walking tour. Landside facilities are impressive - orientation and sightlines, playground with canoe and drums, public art, grass rigging area and decent launching beach! Got the new user breifing from Ryan and Jen - thanks to both! Ryan was saying they had sailed the last 12 days in a row (even during the high heat). Rigged up and headed out. Interesting mix of wings, windsurfing foils, and windsurfing fins. Onshore wind with entry favoured from starboard (west end of the windsports beach). Light (lighter than before) on the inside. Wings bussing about pretending to be water ballerinas on the inside. Once out in the open water, same as before (gradually more wind the further you got toward the river and cliffs above the river). Suprized at how far out the river delta had pushed and how many stumps there were out there. Followed Ryan and Jen up to the first cliff and played there. Flat enough to practice carve 360s, but not as flat as inside the river on low tide. Fun way to spend a Friday afternoon and start the weekend early! Glad I made the trip up!
