Hey Phoenix,
There are some dives around the boise valley. Lucky Peak Res. is about 20 min. from Boise. Here is the only dive shop in the valley, they could tell you of somemore dive sites. Call and talk to Jim. Let me know when you are going to be there in August & I'll see if I can't make it down to go diving with you.

Hey lal7176,
I haven't been diving for about 6 weeks, & that was a search and recovery dive for a guys drift boat oar his dog nocked out of the boat. It has a river diver in 36 degree water. Cold Man! But hey he paid me $40.00 so I had fun. I am planing to do a few lake dives next weekend in south-eastern WA. Then I'll be in Monterey for a week in June. We sell about 2-3 belts a week from our site. Glad your happy with your belt, let me know if you feel we could do something to make it better.

Wow.....we will all have to hook up for a dive. Im sure i can do the 13th or 14th. Keep your fingers crossed for good vis and conditions.

As far as my belt, it works perfect for my needs so i cant think of any improvements.
