    Diving / snorkeling in the Apostle Islands WI

    Does anyone know of scuba tour companies that go to the Apostle Islands? I've had difficulty finding any resources for tours in the area or gear rental for scuba - though plenty of tourism websites including the NPS site say it's a popular dive spot. Is it only possible via a private boat...

    Underwater tour and treasure dive Lake Superior Marquette

    The dive begins as a rock tour to the north of where the cliff jumpers loose their things, but we make our way there and do a little picking at the end of the video. Th viz this day was incredible. Imagine chasing Tai fighters when I cruise the valleys. Some of you will get that. Don

    Diving The Lower Harbor Ore Dock

    If you've ever been to Marquette, MI, or seen photo's, you've probably seen the beautiful ore docks in the northern and south harbors here. Recently I went out and checked out what was going on under the dock in lower harbor! I did get a little resistance in my attempt to dive the north side of...

    Our cleanup plus behind the scenes...

    As I enjoy my layover in Minneapolis, I'm able to polish off a quick cleanup video. I'll be out of internet for a bit but will be sure to check your comments when I get back. Lesson learned: First step: create a committee... Second step: Check your sanity at the door ;)

    Lake Superior is not as clean as you may think *video*

    I am organizing a clean up next month and am showing the conditions in our harbor to try and bring awareness to a serious problem. About 2/3 the way through you'll see what I mean. We've used lakes and streams as dumping grounds for too long. Question. What does one do when the city doesn't...

    Another Lake Superior Treasure dive complete with trout And treasure!

    During yesterday's treasure dive, I spotted a couple really nice Coaster Brook Trout, picked up a little garbage, and found a little treasure too. Thankfully the water was 43 degrees which was actually warmer than the air :)

    Checking out the 85 foot high ore dock in Lake Superior

    A dive buddy and I checked out one of the original piers in Marquette and then examined the 85' high ore dock. Both a large part of our local history. Lake Superior is cooling now, but there is still a chance to get some dives in before the ice and famed Gales Of November.

    Found two Apple Watches and more

    People jump from the cliffs here into Lake Superior to cool off, and this year it's been exceptionally warm. Above the thermocline the lakes been mid 60s and so it has been quite inviting. Of course a lot of people are losing stuff due to carelessness and so here goes another treasure dive :)
