Looking at your signature I have to wonder why that would matter to you.

Reason why, Its sometimes fun to dive with other people. It gets boring sometimes by yourself, when you see something cool you point it out and no one is there. So sometimes its AWESOME and sometimes it sucks.

If we're going to talk about solo diving, perhaps we should just change the topic to "jumping out of an airplane without a backup parachute."HybridDiver:
BTW: By "the kelowna lake" do you mean Okanagan Lake? (the one that Kelowna is basically "on")

One summer, I'd like to see it... what's bottom temp like?HybridDiver:
There's a PADI IDC there, so I imagine there's a lot of divers around already -- maybe there's a dive club in place?
Actually coming back to my parents place in Vernon in early May, like to do some diving there before heading to Port Hardy. I've never dove fresh water (except the upper zone of the Kattegatt sea, hehe). Any good dive centers in Vernon or Kelowna?

Hey guys
Its Luke from Dive Zero Video Magazine, based out of Kelowna BC.
Yes, Chris we gotta go diving soon, have you checked out Kettle River past big white? or the train barge? Theres tons of cool dive spots here other than the lake, we can show you.
If you are looking for some dive shops, theres Diving Dynamics in Kelowna, and Serpent Aquatics in Westbank. I would suggest serpent aquatics if you want a shop that doesnt rip you off. We were involved bigtime with Diving Dynamics, the IDC centre, and the course director even left them to join us, the way they do things is unbelievable.
Also if you come to Kelowna, plan to head out to Vancouver and do some diving. If you like, we can take you out to Pavilion Lake about 3 hours from kelowna, where NASA is studying freshwater coral, only 3 places in the world, other 2 are in Nevada and Mexico. Its pretty cool - right off the highway near Cache Creek, caribbean ambience, 70 - 80 ft vis.
