Hello From Alaska

[Midge907]

Hello, my name is Jason. I'm 32 and married. I am currently reading the first section of the open water dive certification book. I did a two tank discover dive in Roatan during Christmas, and fell in love. I'm looking forward to joining the dive community, whether I'm diving the warm waters of the Carribean, or the cold waters of Alaska.

But in a good way - Cold water diving is AWESOME! Warm water diving bores me, but cold water keeps me endlessly entertained.

Heading to Whittier here in a little more than a week. Curious to see what that's all about =) Spoiled rotten with our local diving!

Interesting. Just last night I was talking to an old dive buddy in California about the possibility of heading out to Unalaska this summer to dive out there.

Welcome aboard Jason! Wonderful group of divers in Alaska.

Brandon & Co. showed my wife (then gf) and I a wonderful time in Unalaska in summer 2007! Surprisingly we both found that we kept needing more weight as the Bering Sea seemed to have much higher salinity than in Juneau, Seward or Whittier or anywhere else.

I'm glad to hear that Unalaska has such great diving, i'm planning on doing my open water dives in Whittier.

I've seen pictures of the Whittier. It looks great!
