Spot Details
Launch: Expert (limited space, trees, rocky shoreline, current, must be assisted)
Parking: Free at adjacent lot
Wind Direction: W, SW
Notes: Only kite with the wind side to the current. Be careful with your board. It will float away in the current. There is a lot of barge traffic on the North side of the channel. Boat/jetski support is recommended if at all possible. Winds are VERY gusty. Debris is often in the river as well. Very little room for error. There are better Mississippi River kiting spots.
