Hello Oregon Divers! (And other PNW divers too...)

Post by nfthomps »

Hey all,
I've recently moved to Corvallis and have been out of the water for far too long! I'm an experienced diver (Rescue cert - NAUI) coming from the beautiful shores of Lake Champlain, Vermont. I'm fully immersed in the cold-water, deep, dark murky realms. I LOVE wreck diving, but at this point just want to get wet! Sometime in the near future I'd like to get to Clear Lake in the Cascades or get salty on the coast. Anyone who wants to get a dive in give me a holler!

welcome to the area... did you ever see Champ? we only have Sasquatch out here and he's not much of an underwater entity....
The student was ready.


it's nice to have low expectations, sometimes - lcf

Hey Neil,
I'm up for clear lake in the near future, I've never been there.
Providing the weather window for the year has not yet closed( i.e. roads open?).
Any specific day/time in mind?
Cheers
Ike

Welcome to NWDC. Post up some dive plans and maybe we can hook up for a dive sometime. Probably won't be making the trip up to Clear Lake again till next summer but have fun if you make it up. Bring some hot beverages and a warm coat for the surface intervals. 39 degree water!
