Pistol River Wave Bash

I'll be down the Oregon Coast June 15-19 hoping for wind and waves at Pistol. I'm not competing but would like to sail and watch. If the weather forecast blows, I mean sucks, I may go to where the wind is but Pistol is my preferred destination. I am down with a caravan but I am a lower mainland guy so probably a stranger to most!

Hey sounds good! What are the odds of watching the game? Are you camping or staying in a hotel?

Fairgrounds likely or the visitor's center, right in the middle of town past Raymonds food store, can't miss it 8) Most of us will be late getting to the event or just after it tho :arrow:

Anyone going over the dates of the bash?

T-monkey,

We'll be down in the 'hood first starting on the 10th. We'll make our way down to PR around the 13th or 14th. We'll be in the subtle orange Xterra with too many boards stacked on the roof and with the viscious pitbull-border collie.

Sounds good

Hey sounds good. I may be in hood river first too. I'll be at Pistol on the 16th for sure. I'm driving a silver volvo with a thule box and have a Jedi dog answers to Luke Skywalker.
