Brandon and I dove near the dam today. We ran across ianr33 in between dives...cool license plate btw, Ian. :14:
Nice dives. Conditions have definitely improved since the last time I was at the lake. Water temps ranged from 63 degrees at the surface to 57 degrees at 155'. No serious thermoclines recorded. Temps consistently dropped as we descended. Definitely drysuit diving...
Vis has improved. I'd say we had 8'-10' vis at some points above 75'. Below 75' vis deteriorated to 4'-5'. At 120' visibility was down to about 1'-2'. By 130' it was close to zero and stayed that way down to 155' where I gave up on hoping it would improve and turned around.
