| Yesterday we were in and out of the wind at various points. For a good part of the run from the south fire station (we like starting there because it is relatively protected and we get a good warmup) the wind was more concentrated on the far side. You could see the whitecaps running right to left closer to the far shore in Blue Canyon so we paddled up the canyon a bit and over to the far side then had wind and waves to Reveille Island. We chose to stay left through the middle of the lake and missed out on some of the stronger wind and waves there that were farther out, but it was nice to be more out of the gusts which were kind of obnoxious at times. Caught some funky rebound at Strawberry Pt., but Denise was on a good wave and zipped right through that. Then the waves started to build again for the nice finale at Bloedel with a quick turn across the waves at the end to land near the boat ramp - good place to practice beam paddling on a day like yesterday. | Yesterday we were in and out of the wind at various points.
