Sunday 1/20/19. Keystone Jetty in the morning was 10 to maybe a dirty 15ft. Skyline in the pm was a silty 5 to barely 10 ft at the end of the flood. Deeper and farther out in the channel it teased 15ft luckily. Currents at both sites were running a bit stronger than the predictions. I blame the bloo...

Is the parking area at Keystone man made? As we all know, mother nature usually doesn't take much pity on things that aren't supposed to be there! As long as the water keeps following the erosion back towards the road and they relocate the bathroom, I'm ok with it! More of the jetty underwater would...

Looks like a fun time! The big cabezon are always cool to see.

Some people have too much time on their hands, and I am eternally grateful for it! This is fantastic in so many ways.

I was able to skip out of work early on Monday for our annual New Years Eve dive. This year the tides looked good so we headed to Anacortes for another splash at Skyline. Jan K showed up and I got to officially meet him which was cool! After some fiddling with malfunctioning gear (always seems to ha...

They are all fantastic so I am not picking a favorite! I do like the hooded nudibranch shot with the patterns in the wings though.

Wow fantastic!!! What's the bottom middle one? Where did you see that? Yes let's dive soon! Hopefully keystone Sunday if wind allows :) That was a scrambled egg nudibranch I saw in Kona. I thought it was pretty neat! I am diving Saturday this weekend, so I won’t see you guys unfortunately. If anyon...

Just thought I would share my nudi new years post from the social medias here because I only have a couple online friends who think that underwater slugs are cool. I hope that everyone ended the old or is starting the new year out with some good diving! We found some big king crabs and Jan K at Skyl...

I hope we can dive with you at keystone soon

Keystone has some great January tides! I do want to see some Lumpies at Redondo also.

Sorry to hear about your dad. My mother-in-law passed away a few years ago (also around the holidays) so I know how tough it is. We have been scattering her ashes all over the last few years. Several times we've just waded into the water off a nice beach (Belize, Catalina Island, Cannon Beach and So...

Glad to hear the diving was still great (even with the plastic). I can't wait to see the new and improved ledge!

A few weeks ago the weather forecast was not looking great for a Keystone dive, so my buddy Matt and I decided to head up to Vancouver to visit the Sea Dragon crew and dive off the Topline. We lucked out with only 7 divers on the boat and surprisingly calm seas considering the forecasted gale warnin...

I like the nudi shots! My buddy Matt that you met at Keystone is a Trekkie. Hopefully we can meet you guys for a dive next month and you two can geek out while I roll my eyes and make stupid Star Wars jokes

Don’t forget a shovel to dig a new trail down to the beach. I saw on the news that the main road flooded at high tide, so I can’t even imagine how eroded the bank is now!

Sunday December 9th. Around Bowen Island in Howe Sound was a little gritty but still between 20 and 30+. Not bad at all.

Oh man that looks like it was fun. Edmonds with good vis is awesome! Nice shots and video

What, that was pretty awesome! Nice work!!!!

Lol, we bailed on diving Keystone last Sunday because I didn’t want to be out in the rain and wind. Luckily my buddy has a bunch of unused dragon passes on the Topline, so we got to still go diving and we didn’t have to get wet

It was good meeting you guys finally! Looking forward to it again sometime. The jetty is in such good shape these days compared to the last couple years. Less barnacles and urchins, and more color than there's been. That big octo was really cool! Also, on our first dive after we finished checking ou...

I'm sorry you feel that way I found a very rare nudibranch there last month.. Nice pictures by the way !!! Lol! I actually was remembering your report on the Doto’s and tried looking for them but my eyes didn’t want to cooperate. I gave up pretty quick and tried to imitate the flipping off fish Ins...

It was good to finally meet a few of you guys out there. That was some fun diving! Hopefully everyone got to see and photograph the pretty orange juvenile wolf eels. Next time hopefully I will have more time to socialize. Have fun in Mexico Bob!

Thanks for the advice Dives were great, definitely going back to see this location again! Glad to hear it worked out! The more that you are able to dive it while learning how to plan around the currents, the less intimidating it gets! It also gets more and more fun when you start learning the nuanc...

Skyline is one of the top Dives here ? Easily the worst dive around. Nothing to see but barnacles and hermit crabs. Plus the current will probably kill you even on a good day. Everyone should just go to T-Dock or Cove 2 :angelblue: In my previous non-career as a mediocre not good enough to be a pro...

I’ll be out there around 11:45. I drive a maroon F-150 and my buddy and I talk a lot of smack to each other. Somedays we even kinda look like we know what we are doing!

My buddy Matt and I finally made it back down for a quick adventure last weekend at Skyline Wall. The vis was a decent 20 ft but the dive was pretty lame. The cucumbers were not out feeding and we found all of zero candy stripe shrimp. It was pretty much a waste of time even bringing the camera. We ...
