Conestoga - St Lawrence, as clear as it gets

If you have been to the Conestoga and done the lock 28 drift you have to watch this...

Awesome. I have never seen that kind of visibility on that dive.

Wowza! That is amazing viz and a fun video!

 

[JBFG]

Wow that was amazing!!!
I want to hit the water so badly now. Where the heck is my drysuit? Lol

My dry suit ships in a couple of weeks... that was my first thought as well, wish I had it so I could jump in.

Incredible!

Wow that was amazing. I never believed viz like that was possible. *Almost* makes me want to grab my gear lol. I would never have the confidence to do a drift under the ice.
Is the road closed in the winter? Wondering why they were walking back instead of drone operator picking them up

Cool, was there in August 2018 and the viz was not quite the same and I was in a 3mm full wetsuit.
Thanks for sharing.

Yeah my drysuit is in Barrie getting some TLC. I hope it to arrive soon. We should hit the water when ready!

Love the winter diving up here! Did a dive a few back in front of Boldt Castle. Early March, water temp 35* F, river was flat as could be. We were at 100-110' down and could see the parapets on the castle clearly from depth!! I owned three cameras and forgot to take one, have regretted it many times since.
