Sounds awesome, have been thinking about getting a group together and making the trip.

Good Points, sounds incredible.

What about camera strobes? Can you dive with a strobe?

Im going near there around 19 Dec. Thinking of diving it. If anyone else will be there then let me know and we can meet up.

I made 10 dives over 2 weekends in August. First weekend was August 16th, 3 on sat and one on Sun. I agree Summer is the time to go. Third dive on Sat there were 2 divers and 7 staff. Sunday am it was me and 4 staff. Two weeks later I went back and did 6 dives - largest group was 5 divers. No other groups diving. I don't mind doing repeat trails. WAter temp (57 degrees) is not my favorite, but obviously I got over it. Have since taken dry suit course and bought a dry suit, but the 5-1/2 hour commute has prevented me from going back.

As previously stated, it's not for everyone... but definitely worth a try and something you can mark off your list of things to do...

Dive op is top-notch and safety emphasized there more than anywhere I've ever been.
I've just completed rescue diver and DM this summer so I probably paid closer attention to that stuff than when diving before...

Yes. I did six dives over three days in August on assignment and it was pretty cool. You can read my trip report here.

Okay, it took awhile but the Bonne Terre story was finally published in Scuba Diving Magazine in the June issue. So I can now show some pictures from the trip. You can find a slideshow here.

Thanks,
