Hi Louis,
I don't have much experience with Bear Lake, but a front is coming into
that area on Thursday. The front is occluded, so the wind will be a little
lighter than you might expect, and I think while it's West it will be pretty
gusty, so if you take a Kite board, keep a weather eye out. But, should be
ridable conditions on West wind. By Sunday it should go North, and
be much steadier, but I think if you're riding Windsurf gear, it's likely
to be 7.5 material or maybe an 18 M Kite.
I see the NWS is calling for South wind all 4 days, so I could be wrong.
If Kiting you'll probably want the West beach by Lakota (I don't know
if there's any public access over there), if Windsurfing you'll probably want the East beach. Once it goes North, you'll want the North beach in Idaho
(There's public access there).
Again, I don't have any real experience with Bear Lake, other than
some water-ski tournaments as an adolescent, and back then we thought
too much wind was 5 MPH. So your mileage may very,
-Craig
