conditions & access

Hazards

The workbook coordinates are about 23 km south of Hood River and do not identify the waterfront operator or launch. Do not navigate to the pin; confirm the lesson meeting point. On the Columbia, account for strong current, cold water, swell, traffic and a downwind exit.

Parking & access

No exact parking is verified at the workbook coordinates, which are about 23 km south of Hood River. If using Hood River waterfront instead, consult current Port zones/rates: https://www.portofhoodriver.com/waterfront-parking
