Dive site description:
There are log booms here to prevent boats from getting too close to the dam, there is an opening in them swim through that opening. Just past the opening about 100 ft more there is a cliff wall. Have only explored a bit of it but the bottom is about 78 ft down.My buddy did find a fishing pole here my last dive nothing this one. vis was about 20 ft at some points water was about 49F.
Directions:
This is located right near the ranger station just before you hit the town of estacada along the highway. Follow the signs to the boat ramp. Easy to find
