Windsurfing & Kiteboarding
The Columbia River Gorge is the gusty superstar of wind sports in the Pacific Northwest.
Unlike any other river in the US, here you can windsurf or kiteboard with the eastbound
winds and float back on the westbound current. People pilgrimage to Hood River
(ground zero for these activities) from all over the world to take on the gorge's famously
strong and consistent winds. Check them at http://thegorgeismygym.com .
