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...

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!

Epic day on Friday. Strong winds starting early, at about 11am lasting until late into the evening. Winds were blowing at 18kts., at times hitting 23kts. Some had an opportunity to go in the late afternoon or evening, conditions were that strong. Tomorrow Saturday, not sure what the weather brings. ...

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.

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.

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...

We been having a lot of rain lately. I just went to town, today Friday June 15 and the road between Youbou and the lake is overall in good conditions. Some sections have been recently been graded. But… there are also some sections that have a lot of potholes. Just be aware of them and slow down. You...

Continue to make progress in removing the remaining sections of the log at the beach. Mark cut the log into more manageable sections (pictures in the gallery). We used 10 sections as seats and tables in the school area, the rest needs to be moved away. Maybe you have a need for a coffee table with a...

Well that did not work out… Actual gradient was only 7C, and the overcast did mess things up. Wind on Saturday was inconsistent, moderate in the beginning, building to strong and shutting off without a warning around 5pm. Sunday looks OK, a temperature gradient of 6C, some moderate winds off the coa...

The wind forecast for Saturday June 8, is the best I have seen so far this year. The temperature difference between Tofino and Port Alberni is 10C. In the past when the forecast called for a temperature gradient of 10C we had winds in excess of 20kts. Let’s see if this is still true for this year. S...

Quick follow up, the webcam at Lake Nitinaht is now operational. Check it out, or even better, come and visit us at the lake…

Hello TunaCan, yes, tomorrow Friday is looking good. We had good day on Thursday, 15kts peaking around 5pm. For Friday we are expecting stronger conditions, the temperature difference between Tofino and Port Alberni are expected to be 6C. We are expecting moderate to strong conditions to start somet...

June 6: Wind conditions at the lake will depend entirely on the thermal engine. The temperature difference between Port Alberni and the coast is only 5C, however the air is unstable and if we get clear sky the ground will heat up and the thermals will start pumping. We had a good day on the lake lat...
