Lake George Dive Sites Using Google Earth

[kev_328]

For those interested in diving some of the lesser known sites on Lake George, feel free to use this resource.

Step1: Go Here:
http://www.adirondackscubaclub.com/googleEarth/LakeGeorge.kmz

Step 2: Save the *.kmz file to your hard drive.

Step 3: Double Click on the file that you just saved and it should open Google Earth. (You may need to associate this file with an application. I typically use Google Chrome or FireFox.)

Make sure you select Lake George under the file tree for Temporary places:


If you click on each thumb tack you should see details about the site.

There is another way to do this that does not require people to download anything and will reach a wider audience. Go to Wannadive and add your sites there. - Wannadive.net - World dive site atlas Then go to Google Earth, in the Layers section you can expand the Oceans section, then turn on the option Ocean Sports. Your sites will now appear on Google Earth as dive flags that can be clicked on to provide the information you listed on Wannadive.
