Travis Conditions - 2/18

[LVX]

The lake was looking pretty bad today. I was teaching a drysuit course and didn't get below 60 ft but up to that point, vis was no better than 5 ft and there were many instances of 2-3 ft vis. Water temp was running around 53.

You guys are all compainers.......we had ideal conditions at Twin Lakes last weekend. Vis was about 16 feet, more on the platforms. The water temperature was a balmy 54 degrees.

So which park were you at, L.? You hit up Bob Wentz for the easy entry, Barstows for the break neck stride entry, or Mansfield for the calf-swelling hike?

We were out at Barstows. The water level had dropped from the weekend before about a foot. Now the platform is about 6-12" from the top of the platform....

Very exciting.....

inches, or feet? I thought it was a pretty good drop?
