I dove off the old saw mill in Youbou. -Lots of logs and wood debris. I'll have the photos/report up probably tomorrow. I've never been in Elk Lake. I don't know why not. Maybe I assume that the visibility won't be that great. I will try it one of these days.

I made the trek to the coast - Sunday, Ogden point at the end a very clear 40 feet at the bottom. Monday we dove Tanner Rock (Saanich Inlet) and had an amazing 60 feet in the morning, dropped to 40 feet on our second dive 3 hours later. Harbour seal visited with us at depth.

Nice and bright and clear at McKenzie Bight (Saanich Inlet) today. Visibility was 20-30 feet in the shallows and 50-60' deeper down. It was so bright below 100' deep that I had a hard time being able to tell if my video light was on.

About the same again at the end of the trail at McKenzie Bight today. Maybe even closer to 100' visibility down on the deeper walls/reefs.

The visibility in the shallows at McKenzie Bight today has dropped (10') compared to last week, but below 30' deep, visibility was still over 50'.

At Henderson Point today, visibility was only a few feet in the shallows, but it started to clear up below 20 feet deep. Below 40 feet or so, visibility was about 40 feet. One weird thing was that the water seemed cold in the shallows. A diver who had just come out of the water confirmed this. According to his computer, the temp. was 11 degrees at depth and 8 degrees in the shallows.
