Has anyone tried Flying at a local ski area such as Stevens Pass, Snoqualmie, Crystal Mountain, Mt Baker, and what is their response?
Maybe not allowed? Other local areas to Seattle good for winter kiting?bigkid - 8-11-2012 at 02:40 PM
Stevens, Snoqualmie, and Baker are not going to let you play. Crystal and Mission Ridge will allow it up high. Biggest problem is the wind has to be
just right or it's a waste of time.
North of Ellensburg, up the Clockum just South of Mission Ridge is great if you can get up there. If all else fails, Montana is always open.
It is obvious you can spell Snoquaulmie, so you must be a local.Windy Heap - 8-11-2012 at 03:26 PM

I'd love to meet up with you sometime Jeff and chat about foils and what to buy.

once you get above the tree line it would be rather good, once you get above the tree line.stetson05 - 9-11-2012 at 01:15 PM
I have heard in the right wind lake Keechelus Lake is about as good as it gets. Let me see if I can find some video of it. I don't remember which
wind is the best either. I have also wondered about Mt. Rainier. I have heard great things about Mt St Hellens but I think you need a snow mobile or
dog sled to get to the spots.stetson05 - 9-11-2012 at 01:15 PM
Oh, I almost forgot the Waterville Plateau is a great area but a lot longer drive.PistolPete - 10-11-2012 at 04:52 AM
