4.5 miles of hiking • 1500' elevation gain •
Now working 2.5 days a week & today was a 2.5th day so I got time for a short hike. The trail is partly shielded from east wind so it was OK until almost the top. At the very top, wind gusts were crazy - I had to kneel down behind the rock 'cause it was impossible to stand! It was towards 80-90mph since I know can stand at 70mph wind.

No doubt. The highest winds I've ever encountered in the Gorge were on top of Angel's Rest...
