Centenial, CO diving locations?

[MAsharkDiver]

Hi all - I will be visiting the Centenial / Denver area this summer and would like to know if there are any "local" diving spots in the area? By 'local', I mean within driving distance.

Thanks in advance for any info.

Only if you are into resevoir diving. Aurora and Chattfield are both in the Denver Metro area.

Search this forum for descriptions of each.

Just remember you'll be altitude diving also (Mile High city and all).

MAShark,

When are you coming to the Denver area? Aurora reservoir is the best "option", but it's cold in the spring. Hell, it's cold all the time.

We've got a whole slew of decent shops in the area where you can rent gear, in case you aren't in to lugging it all over.

Also, if you are in the area on 18 June, we are having an Oysters bash at the res.

I will be out in Littleton in mid-August and I don't mind "cold water" diving.... I'm from New England and am use to diving in 33F - 60F water.... anything above 55F is "tropical"!
