Overview

The real jewel of Minnesota. If you know that wind is going to change the direction, go to MilleLacs or Waconia instead.
The wind gets the power blowing over the lake so the narrow east end is actually well worth. Don’t go there if you’re not a good rider as it is really narrow.
Due to difficult launch the spot is not really a beginner friendly.

Wind

Only with wind from the west.

It is your responsability to check whether kitesurfing is allowed at the spot; you might need a 'special permit' or membership from a local kite organization, etc. Local rules can change. Respect others - kiters or not; kite safely and enjoy the wind!
