Re: Diver Health
Being a slightly older guy, :-) I work out with weights and aerobics, to be able to keep diving. It gets tougher, especially here in the cold water. I have had friends give up, because it became too difficult. I am in Portland. Let me know if you can schedule something here, as I would be interested...

Re: Dive Site Map for Salter's Point?
I think the NW Wreck Dives book by Scott Boyd and Jeff Carr has a underwater map in it. Basically IIRC go to the farthest south piling and drop down and you will find two boats. Swim north at around 25 fsw and you will find two more boats at the north end of the marina. There is another red boat a l...

Amazing shots! Looks like pretty good vis, too. Thank the mussels. :-) Although they have been a economic disaster, they have cleaned the water. The Great Lakes used to murkier than Puget Sound. Zebra Mussels have scrubbed the water. On the shallower wrecks I have seen they were several inches deep...

I was canoeing on the Lewis today and there were baby salamanders floating on the surface of the water a...

Re: whites dry suit questions..?
If the neck seal has never been trimmed, make sure it is not too tight for you. You don't want to cut off blood flow to your cranium. If it has been trimmed, it could be loose and leak. Shoot, try it on, if it fits ok, you are good to go. Hopefully, you have taken a drysuit specialty, so you know ho...
