The lake is continuing to warm up. Tried to time the dive day to get a few tanks in and get home before the weather turned.
Got to the lake about 10:00 a.m. and the parking lot was empty:D.


Dive area: Bluffs late morning.

Dive #1: Max depth 88' with a bottom temp of 45.
Surface temp 62
Visibility 15 feet above 30'.
Thermocline trying to take hold between 30' and 40' and the temps drop into the mid 50's.
Below 40' viz was about 25' (not as clear as a few weeks ago but we have had lots of rain)

A few dive classes showed up during our SI, but they stayed shallow with short BT.

Dive #2: Max depth 52' with a bottom temp of 52.
Viz was about 20'.

Great day
