Lake Effect Kite

[Rorke]

We are getting a pounding of snow right now at the Snow Kitehouse.

This weekend should be excellent.

If anyone is in the area, we plan on kiting and watching football.

I don't know how to put photos up here. Been trying for 15 minutes.

check out the banner here though.....http://lakeeffectkite.com/location.html

Nice Rorke!!!

Dig the website artwork and the many cool pictures. Leelanau County is an easy sell and an amazing piece of Americana. The location of Rorke's snowkite house is everything he makes it out to be.

Looks like the last couple of days have been phat and Sunday could be deep pow downwinders.........................hum???

Rorke,

Looks awesome. I can imagine you getting pounded on that side with lake effect snow, hence the name.

Cool stuff.

Rorke, your setup looks pretty sweet, gotta set my mind to come visit one of these weekends.

Keep us posted!

[Rorke]

Thanks for the kind words guys.

Here is a photo from last week from the backyard.

Visited Thursday and Friday and had an awesome time, thank you Rorke for everything, good times, great sessions!

Update:

My brother and I have had a great time having visitors visit the lair. Good wind, great snow, cool guys, rockin' tunes, high quality brewskis, fires in the fireplace, good grub, etc.

I have been a spectator though.

10 days ago, I had an accident snowboarding and fractured my hip, cracked 4 ribs, and tipped my scapula. Out for the season.

It would still be cool if guys want to come up and experience the awesomeness.

Rorke,

I'm really sorry to hear that, I broke my hip 11 years ago and it wasn't fun.

I wish you a speed recovery!

Cheers

Whoa Rorke...sounds rough!!!
Hope you heal up fast and get back into action ASAP
Take care man.

Sorry to hear about your banged up body Rorke. I'll call ya up and check in with ya.

Hope your feeling a bit better as that does not sound fun

[Rorke]

Thanks guys.

Recovery is going great. I can walk around and stuff. Just can't rip it up or I might send a rib into my liver or lung. 3 or 4 more weeks off for safety.

The deepness is great out here. High temps have settled the snow, but the backyard is still killer. Fat skis preferred.
Wind is cranking for next 3 days. Lets hope the sky clears for this full moon.
