Kiters launch and land at the south end of the park, near the boat launch. Access to the water is between trees. There are also big boulders on the shoreline. The trees create some bad gusts, and lulls. Most kiters receive hold downs while launching, and walking to the water. Along the shoreline, trees and bushes block most access to the water. If you get caught down wind, there are only a few small clearings, where a kiter can come back to shore. No body will be there to help you land. When you get close to the clearings, you will have to land your kite in the water, and self rescue to shore. Then deflate your kite to walk back.
