windy weekend Lloydminster


well I'm sure its too much drive for any of you, but I'm finally gonna get my first water sessions this weekend at the lake. Winds are forecast for 14-18 knots ESE for both Saturday and Sunday. Its the perfect side onshore wind direction for our little lake. Usually if its forecasted that much it will come with higher gusts. So I'm bringing all my gear to be prepared. :wee:

This is our lake btw :thumbup:

right now I'm assuming that it will be around maybe 3-6 degrees celsius (37.4-42.8 Fahrenheit) but that is just a rough estimation. I have a 5/4/3 wetsuit so no issues there. The best part about going to this lake is that the only road into it is a small cattle trail on a farmers land, and we have permission to use it anytime as long as we don't let his cows out:yes:
