At somewhere around 1970 my family took another trip to Yellowstone Park - this time we brought the Super Satellite from Phoenix. Had a great day of sailing in BIG breeze and very cold water. A beautiful place to sail - Grant Village was where we launched from - (I think?) If you are traveling nearby or considering it for a destination - I would heartily recommend the Lake - do some fishing while you are there too! GO In a message dated 8/30/2013 5:52:45 A.M.

Yellowstone lake is a Great Lake to sail and we sail it more often then Jackson Lake. Main reason being at Yellowstone you don't have to put up with all the kid from Jackson Hole who, using their daddy's speed boat to party on the lake. At times it can get annoying. Yellowstone is quite and no one on it but a few kayaks. One of the best places to sail. Put in at a Grant Village, great place.

Hi David,
I live in Jackson Hole, and sail my M17 on Jackson Lake. It is a beautiful place to sail. The lake is down to about 25% .capacity , but is still a wonderful but challenging lake. The wind is fairly irregular with occasional afternoon thunderstorms. Things can get exciting then. There is no sailing on Jenny Lake. Feel free to call me if you get here. I'll be in California myself till Sept 13.
