I go to Whytecliff more because it's closer.

I would say Porteau is more interesting if we are gonna do a shallower dive 50-60ft... because of the Granthal wreck.

... but I like going deep on the cut at Whytecliff 80-120ft - even better on a night dive.

I got reg, bcd, and spg setup you can use. BCD is a medium but it'll work fine. I've got a drysuit whip you can use too.

Vis is about the same it's just the run off from the snowmelt or rain I dunno... been a bad 2 weeks.

I have weekends off.

I will keep an eye on the vis reports. http://www.scubaboard.com/forums/wes...ndition-8.html

Yeah, run off makes sense, hopefully it settles down a bit. Let's hope for some good vis!

Porteau is that past horse sheo bay? The wreck would be great place to go diving. We could all go in one truck.

Another guy posted that he did a night dive last night with 10' vis. I'm amazed at how bad it is right now...

Ya past Horseshoe Bay by maybe 20 min. Taking one truck would be great.

Of course J but nothing solid yet. Steve and I were thinking about Saturday but I just had a look at the weather - looks like a cold snap, -4, maybe snow - NAH!
