Willow Springs Dive Park

I think Lake Ontario is within a reasonable distance to do a long 3-4 day weekend type trip. Is that somewhere you dive or have gone diving often? If you have any info. on whats going on there let me know. I am trying to set up something for a few of us down here in PA.

Also what's the deal with treasure hunting and artifact finding in the Great Lakes. I was told they have some strict rules there about that stuff.

There isn't alot on the NY side for dive charters, but there are a few PM me with some contact info and I will send you some stuff. And my local dive shop is currently setting up about just for that.

If you have a boat there are several great dives just outside of Oswego New York. Do a Search for the "David W. Mills" Also about an 1 1/2 hours north is the easyest shore/wreck dive you will ever do in Alexandria Bay NY

My Local shop also runs a boat on Skeanatlas Lake if you are interested in doing dives with lots of geology.

I will warn that the zebra mussels are a double edged sword. Yes they have been a benefit for the vis, but they cover everything! Oh and they are very sharp too.

As far as artifacts, it was explained to me this way. In NY if it has spent more than 30 days on the bottom it is the property of NEW YORK STATE. I do know guys that hunt for bottles and stuff but anything of real antiquaty(sp) will get your gear, car, boat, and anything else you have donated to the state. and I am told that Canada thinks that NY is to easy.


Do you have a time frame?
