Long fetch in NW winds, very deep, scenic, alternative activities . . . but does it blow (from the NW)? Ellensburg, an hour south, blows like holy hell (maybe more than the Gorge) in the summer, but it is fed by a huge topographical funnel. But does anyone know about Chelan's windsurfing prospects?

Sadly the surrounding Mts mess with the wind and it never really lines up but the water is warm in the summer and 25 mile creek will have some swell if the wind ever filled in.
Good Luck

I like Wadebird's answer better, on every level. I think I'll go with it. Wink
