This year my girlfriend and I are planing a trip to the Gorge and the Oregon Cost in the last 2 weeks of july

It is now 10 years since my last visit to the Gorge, so I'm would love some travel advice from the regulars. Is the wind still as strong as it was 10 years ago, or has there been some clima changes???

We are both around 30 years old, my girl friend is an intermidiate freerider, doing waterstarts, Duck jibe, and small jumps. I'm mostly into wavesailing but I also enjoy freeriding. We would like some advice on where to rent good equipment that would suite our level (I normaly sail HotSails Super Freak and Exocet boards but other brands would be fun to try)

We are also looking for a nice Bed and Breakfast/Hotel style accomondation. But we are open for other options. Our budget is 170 USD a day for a nice bed, but cheeper and nice is allways good.

Thank you for your help, and sorry for any miss spelling I made (English is not my first launge)

I would recommend Hood River Hotel to stay. They have nice rooms and good breakfast, great location in DT HR. you will want to request a courtyard room... Much quieter. For rentals definitely Big Winds. Tons of gear, great service, knowledgeable staff, and competitive rates.

Do it online; call, make friends, find deals, look on Gorgenet, HR News, Place an add on craigslist, look around, be aggressive, find the love man.
