You may want to look into Odyssey Diving in Northglenn. Jess does the hydros for other shops and rebuilds regulators that others can''t. Since I found that out I take my equipment there.

45 degrees this morning.

I may be getting a little soft in advanced age. I'll keep tabs on the temp.

g2, You're right, the gravel ponds where the local shops conduct classes is Kingfisher pond. I didn't actually dive to get the temperature, I asked the fire department guys who were there conducting some training. I never ran into a thermocline there. The pond is only about 22 ft deep.

For those with the itch, the temperature was 46 last Sunday.

The ice has been gone for about two weeks now. I can't find in my log what the temperature is in mid to late March. 50 degrees is about my limit to enjoy a dive. We may have to wait until April.

Oops, I should have said "in March"

Does anyone know the temperature of the water at Kingfisher pond in Chatfield park?

Hi John, I believe there has been some mapping work done on Rock Lake several years ago. I have an old phone number for one of the divers. If you PM me I'll give it to you. I have spoken with him and I don't think he would mind sharing his infomation. Frank

Gdaaym8z, Sorry you've been given such a view of the local dive sites. But the truth is the truth and I suspect that no one wanted to sugar coat the conditions. On the other hand I enjoy the challenge of diving here even with the poor vis. The good news is that it is close enough for a dive...

I called NM fish and game. Since they stock trout and panfish in Blue Hole Ponds I asked why not a couple dozen fish in the BH for the amusement of the divers. The guy in charge hasn't called back. Considering I have an out of state area code I don't expect to get a return call. So, for those of...

The good news: Plenty of dive shops in the Denver Metro area. Lakewood has several. You can get a good deal on a trip to Cozumel, 3.5 hours on the plane. There is a small group of people who dive the local lakes. The company is great. Bad news: The local diving isn't very good. Bad vis and cold...

I've never been to Spring Cave. Some of the folks I know have been and say it is not something they woulk do again. The mines we looked into are not a good option either. Humping a set of doubles more than 100 yards is not my idea of a good time.

Duh, all over me! Chatfield.

Dan, My wife and I will be there tomorrow about 4:30. I'll park at the scuba beach, Maroon Tahoe with purple license plates. Frank

I'll own up to being a winner in the lost and left behind equipment. Lyn's jet fin is in 5 feet or less of water near the dam. With the wind pushing waves into the dam the vis was a foot or less when I tried to find the fin. I may make trip to find it later. Yes the t-shirt is mine. Thanks Tino...

I'll bring some potato salad, what about plates etc. Boulderjohn, you can never be overdressed. Frank
