I was joined by r2t and Peter, (lurking, not yet posting.) for a trip too Powell River on the weekend. We met up at SunCoast Diving and headed to Tuwanek where we began by practicing decending as a group and accending seperately. After a half hour or so of this we got on with the real business of extreme low vis diving. We continued honeing our skills later that afternoon with a mud exploration dive in front of Kent's Beach Resort. Saturday we were joined by Rob from Suncoast Diving and Rob and Michelle from NewWestminster. Conditions at Ball Point remained perfect for a game of "now you see me, now you don't" with vis in excess of 50 cms. Alas, poor bouancy control caused us too drop though the murk at 90 feet and call off the game. We used our remaining air supply to enjoy the enourmous cloud sponges. Rob and Michelle, haveing seen enough, or rather far to little, decided to return too the mainland leaveing us to work on full contact diveing at Evandon Point the next day. A confidence builder if nothing else.
