Was there for a week, here's two of the wrecks we were diving. My friend Brian held onto the video pending release at a conference hence the age.

Ambient light at 200' and 120 year old wrecks better preserved than a lot of the wrecks in Lake Washington. Thanks for sharing.

Great video!
The visibility, and the preservation of the wrecks because of the fresh water, is truly remarkable, especially given their age and in comparison to salt water.

We did 7 different wrecks on this trip, two dives a day. Most in the 165 to 190ft range. The Norman shown 2nd in this video was the deepest and hit about 210ft max by the prop. The top rail near the bow is around 170-175ft IIRC. On the Norman, I think we averaged about 190ft for 40 minutes, which was cold. Water temp on the bottom is 38F year round.
ps I'm the guy in the blue and black hood with AL80s of bailout. On the Windiate I think my mask was leaking and I was messing with it a lot, hence the bubbles from the back of my hood.
