Homestead Crater - Midway, Utah

[Odys]

For those of you who have never been or are curious about the largest hot tub in the continental U.S., look no further.

This was shot with a cheapo camera my buddy uses as a helmet cam for motocross (Hero) and I edited it with some free windows crappy software.

Enjoy!

Shamelss plug in there for my pals Jorge and Ben from ScorpioDivers.com

Anyone looking to dive in UT hit me up. I'll be diving pretty heavily for the next couple months (pretty much every weekend.)

what camera is he using, video came out great.

It's a GoPro Hero. We did 3 dives, only had vid of the first as the housing leaked. He ordered a HD version of it, should be in this week. He mainly uses it for desert racing.

It's been a while since I've been up to the Crater. Is the broken hot tub platform still on the bottom?

Love the video, really takes me back. I didn't know they put in wooden booths for changing stations.

Odys, nice video. Viz was better for you than us.

Still there Art. They decided to leave it but have turned it right side up.

Thanks! Ya the vis is really subjective to what noob rubbed the wall on the way down or bottomed out and silted > 35'. The dock is indeed still at the bottom. I don't think I've ever gone and not found something on the bottom (fin straps, snorkels, etc.)
