Early May and Big Wednesday

The usual spring windy season was late this year. March was almost record breaking warm. It seems the jet stream was saving itself for April and even May after the water had warmed. Photos by Chris Voith (cv), Barrett Walker (bw) and Mark Smith (ms). All photos at Van Pugh Park Lake Lanier or as noted Old Federal Park Lake Lanier, Shaeffer Heard Park, West Point Lake

Windy Spring Day at Van Pugh

A cool and windy late April day brings out a crowd to Van Pugh Park on Lake Lanier (4/26/20). Old faces, new faces and even a new sport as our first wingfoiler left the confines of earth and flew on the foil! Photos by Chris Voith. Additional photos by Barrett Walker and Gary Holt

We've created a gallery/slideshow of some of the best pics and images you all have uploaded to the forums this year. We showed these at the Holiday Party and we've added a few that have been posted since. We may add a few more by the end of the year.

Click on this full article to see it - it's too big to display on the front page. Of course, if you want to see every image posted this year, scroll through the Forum Images Gallery or do a Forum Images Search
