Surfed Westport (Jetty) last Saturday. The Grays Harbor buoy has been down for the last week so i couldn’t remotely view the wave conditions. Next closest buoy is 100 miles away or something. The forecast was calling for windy conditions and a less than ideal swell dir/per/size. It was a gamble.
Webcam on the drive out showed a big pile of garbage waiting for us. Stoke level lowered. Fresh warm donuts in Oly took the level back up a notch. Low clouds just past Oly brought it way back down. Bright sun and East wind in Aberdeen jacked it back up. Passed a ladder hauling _____ going the opposite way on the way to Westport–more stoke.
Walked up to the Jetty bluff expecting crap and instead saw offshore winds, good shape and a mellow crowd. Surfed a couple times that day, super fun. Way more fun that i was expecting. Got a ton of waves. Water was super warm too.
Gamble and a win!
Here’s a few snaps:

you guys are dedicated. I saw that report, decided not to drive three hours for crappy crap….. Good work. Even better that crowds were small, you guys scored.
were those taken with your pentax?
Yep. The ones that look a little different with the color I butchered in Photoshop.
Funny cause I saw it days out……NE winds on NOAA…..7@12 on bouyweather. In fact almost railed up there, but ended up staying local. Looks like it was fun. There were waves everywhere that day and everyone scored. Good fun indeed. More please before summer really starts .
