Re: Langley Tire Reef closing?

It's worth diving when the vis is good and it's always a good backup dive when Keystone gets too crazy... I go over there every couple of months and there's always something to see... I even found what I thought was a Cremation bag that turned out to be 25# of soft weights... WTF??? Waaay too heavy ...
