Alberta Diving

[crazycanadian2006]

Recently moved back to Edmonton. Most of my diving is Ocean in South America. Are their any interesting dives in Alberta.

There is the 8ft fiberglass chicken at Twin Lakes, only an hour drive away. My avatar picture was taken at Twin Lakes.

Cold Lake ( 3 1/2 hours North East on hwy 28 ) has a really good underwater course at English bay. A shallow nav course and deeper a couple boats , BBQ , underwater bells , casper the ghost , etc. Starts in 14 ft and goes out to 56ft +.
14mm wet minimum , dry suit the best. Vis is 6-8 ft average so compass skills are a definate plus.
send me a PM if your interested and if I'm around I'd be glad to show you.

This guy keeps a pretty up-to-date list of Alberta sites:

My personal favorites (Alberta-wise) are Lake Minnewanka (Banff)
& Lake Patricia (Jasper).

These are both a little far from Edmonton though. Not day trips...
