The lake turned a bit hard now, but that won't stop us.
We plan to dive the first weekend of March, weather permitting.
Call us crazy! Or even better, come along and try it.

Summer diving is over for 2019!
The visibility started out poor the end of May, then cleared a little by mid-June. By July it was amazing. Reports of up to 30 feet of visibility! It was definitely one of the best years on record. We are hoping that next year is a good one again! |
