conditions & access

Water

Very large river swell / strong current

Experience

Hazards

Very advanced site: the narrow reach creates large swell and strong current. The launch is rustic with little infrastructure; confirm entry/exit, foil depth, wind continuity and self-rescue before committing.

Parking & access

Current 2025/26 launch guide lists free, very rustic access with a porta-potty; confirm road/land status and do not block access: https://columbiagorgetomthood.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/06/watersports_launch_sites_map25_web.pdf
