Nice pics NJ! I especially like the fish eye type wide angle shots. Great place for it!
Looks like you all had a great time. Definitely want to take you up on your offer sometime in the not too distant future.
BTW, I've heard that some or all of the trees in the lake a petrefied. Is this true?

No they are not petrified, they are just preserved from the cold water. It's the real thing. They are old. And better preserved than we ever will be.

its best to choose a buddy with the same breathing pattern
northwest end of clear lake, its like diving on the surface of the moon in the spring
straight out of the camera, no post processing
northeast?side of the lake, 38ffw, lots of sunny viz
self explanatory, luv ya buddy
follow the leader to the "blue hole"
the "blue hole" is a spring that forms a short river that is the main source of the lake; the headwaters of the McKenzie River
the blue hole

what's really amazing is that NJ and nice-diver both were saying the viz was so-so! 50-100' and it's "just alright"...

I dove lake crescent last year- same thing there. I was blown away by 50-70 feet, and everyone who'd been there before was like: "oh- is that all?" Gonna have to go back sometime.....

Thanks alot for the pics ND and NJ. I had agreat time. I really enjoyed meeting everyone. Good to put some faces to some names. Luckily it wasn't too bad in the wet suit. Fingers always thaw out.

I have to say I even enjoyed the long surface swim Penelope and I did yesterday, just laying back on the surface, leisurely kicking, and looking up at the beautiful scenery; it was great! I will definitely be diving Clear Lake again (would love to do it in the winter: night dive, full moon
). It is a unique dive location, and well worth the trip.
Winter, night dive, full moon. That sounds awesome! Good Idea. Thats the only way to make Clear Lake even more like being in space. Keep me posted.
