It VERY much depends on where you camp. If you camp near the water, or on some exposed hillside, you may very well get some strong winds. Otherwise you are most likely very much sufficiently wind shaded. This is not something you should worry about.

I’ll be camping in Horsethief State Park. Near the water for sure.

Well then, yep, it could be quite windy.

I'm curious, any particular reason you chose to camp there? Having been coming to the Gorge for two or three decades, not only have I never stayed there, but I don't recall ever hearing of anybody staying there.

Petroglyphs, hiking, and mostly it’s just an area of the state I have not explored before.
