New to Colorado Diving

[StreetDoctor]

Moved to Colorado a year ago and finally got my dive gear out here. I used to be pretty active here in the tech forums. GUE Tech 1 certified, with some overhead experience in the great lakes. Few hundred dives under my belt, none so far in the state of Colorado. Hoping to change that soon. I sold all of my tanks during the move but still have everything else. How active of a community do we have out here? Planning on a couple trips to California this year to dive the kelp forests. I'm also perfectly happy practicing skills at the local pond.

Welcome! You'll find that there are actually quite a few divers in Colorado, especially for a state so far from the ocean!

Just moved to Denver. Any dive clubs out here?

The more divers in Colorado the merrier I say. I just wish that, like Atlas750, I knew of a dive club in Northern Colorado that met on a regular basis. Searching the net I haven't found anything North of Denver (where I live) except one affiliated with a Dive shop, and they don't apparently meet so much as try to get you to go on their scheduled and costly dive trips. To Street Doctor--Do you prefer cold dives versus tropics? The kelp beds off of La Jolla are nice but nothing compared to coral reefs. But you sound like a technical diver. Have you ever dove a cenote?
