Big loll mid afternoon, but picked up after a short pause In fact the wind got better, more consistent and stronger. For Canada day, we expect strong conditions. Good temperature gradient betwe...

Re: Weather at Lake Nitinaht

The clearing that was initially forecasted for late Saturday did not happen. Lots of rain, drizzle, and yes some wind. Enough for some to go for a few tacks. Overall, this has to be marked as a no wind day. However, this is about to change. Sunday is a drying out day, expecting moderate winds after ...

Re: Weather at Lake Nitinaht

Friday was a good day on the lake. Good wind, 17kts gusting to 19, the wind machine turned on shortly after lunch and kept going until past 7pm. However… 9pm at the campground and we have rain. Saturday still looks OK, based on the numbers, a 6C temperature gradient between the coast and inland, but...

Re: Weather at Lake Nitinaht

It has been wet in the lake, at the lake close to the lake, away from the lake, wet no matter where you go. Well, this should end soon. Forecast calls for a mostly sunny day on Friday, then a chance of liquid sunshine on Saturday before we expect to see a few sunny days. With other words, it is save...

All our participants in the camp had a chance to go on the water and get familiar with the kite and the board. There were plenty of sm...

Re: Log at the Lake Nitinaht beach

It is time we close this chapter. The tree that stranded on our beach is gone. Piece by piece it was removed, or pushed back into the water to find a new resting place.
Thanks to everyone that helped to get rid of the tree. As i said before, it was a great group effort.
Thank You!

Re: Weather at Lake Nitinaht

Good day at the lake, however not as strong as predicted. The reason for that is most likely because the temperature gradient was not as big as forecasted.
Tomorrow Thursday looks like a good day again. Two more days of good kiting before the rain hits on the weekend, don’t miss it.

Re: Weather at Lake Nitinaht

If you are not at the lake already, get out here… until Friday we will have great conditions… Rain on the weekend. Get your week pass and promise you will work twice as hard on the weekend.
Today’s temp gradient is 9C, wind just switched from out-flow to inflow, we will have a great day on the lake.

Re: Log at the Lake Nitinaht beach

We are making progress in removing the log from the Nitinaht beach. Last evening Mark and his crew towed two sections into the open waters. One small section came back and beached just upwind from the school. There are still three sections on the beach that need to be removed. As soon as the limbs a...
