On the Washington side of the Columbia. Also known as Alder Creek this site was named by three intrepid explorers who found tastier wind. You'll find that fisherman like this spot as well, so take care not to cross their lines.

When it blows, as it does in easrl spring until late summer, expect 3.5 to 5.0 conditions. The wind will be the best if has a west to southwest influence to it.

Alder Creek's release makes it slightly choppy at the launch but you probably won't even notice. On bigger days, 5 foot swellsform about 1/4 mile out from the launch. Usually starboard ramps, except during a NW wind. Wave and wave slalom.
