Also, the trail from the bottom of Post Canyon to Seven Streams Staging Area is now closed. This is the road that runs to the west, just north of the Binns/Riorden intersection. If you do so, you will jeopardize TRAIL access for the entire summer. 44 Road: Eightmile, Fifteenmile, Bottle Prairie, Dog River, Superconnector, Cedar, Knebal, Cooks Meadows, 450 to the top, Gunsight, Underhill. Open trails: Post, Falls Creek, Lewis River, Sandy Ridge, Gorge 400, Plains of Abraham / Ape Canyon. Columbia Hills is closed due to fire danger. DNR land in Eastern Washington (Buck Creek / Nestor Peak) is all closed to recreation due to fire danger. It is also vital that people respect this closure to maintain positive relationships between the landowners and trail users. SDS (Whoopdee, Underwood), BLC, HFM, DGS, and Kreps Land (Hospital Hill) are now closed until the end of fire season. Looking for a complete Columbia Gorge forecast?

Wednesday starts clear and ends high overcast with more clouds overnight. Temps will be in the mid 40’s early and near 80 later. On vacation unless some wintry weather happens. Wind direction north unless otherwise noted. KB4C is happening this weekend at the Hood River Event Site.Ĭoast (north/central/south, waves. Saturday currently looks light and variable or perhaps light westerly. Friday looks like 22-26 east of The Dalles with 10-14 in the western Gorge. Drive east of The Dalles for 20-23 from Avery to Threemile. As that frontal system really pushes in and drags deep clouds over the west (and a chance of drizzle!), the western Gorge drops to less than 10mph. Expect Stevenson’s opening to be just 5-10 with the rest of the Gorge, east to Arlington, at 13-16. Thursday will be cloudy in the western Gorge all day, which means there’s a good chance you’re driving east for wind.
That drives the wind up to gusty 21-26 from Hood River to Rufus with 10-13 to the west and light westerlies or LTV wind east of Rufus. The cold front then starts to push onshore. By later morning, the wind rises to gusty 17-20 from Stevenson to Mosier. The day starts with westerlies at 7-10 all the way from Stevenson to Arlington. Wednesday sees a cold front approaching from the offshore waters. River flow is 118kcfs, river temp is 69F, and high temp forecast is 80F. By early afternoon, the wind plummets to E5-10 or less from Rooster to Viento and picks up to E 5ish from Swell to Arlington. Easterlies build to 15-20 between Stevenson and Viento mid-morning with 10-15 at Rooster. Looking at Tuesday, we have easterly pressure gradients to start the morning: 0.03 PDX-DLS and 0.02 DLS-PSC. Westerlies return for Wednesday through Friday before (most likely) dying off this weekend and switching to easterlies on Sunday. If you want wind today, you’ll be rushing down to Stevenson, Home Valley, or Viento for a short-lived burst of easterlies.
