Crosby Mines Conditions? - chbrown2 - 07-28-2006 Has anyone been to the mines in the past week? 'Wondering what the vis is like this time of year, & if the low precipitation has affected it one way or the other. Re: Crosby Mines Conditions? - LKunze - 07-28-2006 Hope to find out this weekend. Myself and a few others are planning on heading up there Sunday morning for the day. Louise has been real good for viz this year (25 feet) when I was last up there on July 2nd. Re: Crosby Mines Conditions? - LKunze - 07-30-2006 Louise had about 20 - 25 feet of viz today. Re: Crosby Mines Conditions? - jleech - 07-30-2006 Thanks for the report. I'm probably headed up there on Wed. My friend Darrell from Ft Worth needs some drysuit/doubles time prior to heading up to Isle Royale. Jeff Re: Crosby Mines Conditions? - MAXFACTOR - 07-30-2006 CROSBY.....  Menomen 1 and 2 had  about  12 feet of good vis, and 18 feet of fair. nice dives with the Public Safety divers,  2 instructors and sheriff, and 3 coffee clubers. and thanks again Grumpie, Lonnie, Eric, and others,  nice finally meeting you guys up at Louise when I was leaving. I'll look forward to talking more with you this week. also we found 2 weight pouches  in  Menomen, near the platform,   contact GRUMPIE,  for more details if you lost them.  JOE B. maxfactor.

Re: Crosby Mines Conditions? - JD - 08-07-2006 The north side of Huntington had great vis this past weekend. Re: Crosby Mines Conditions? - WeatherPaparazzi - 08-19-2006 Just driving back from Crosby right now and not sure of the name but it was the one with the pipe. Vis was freaking great but damn that water gets cold below 25 feet. Above 25 feet it was like diving in the tropics with big ass bass and northerns coming up to me. I got almost 3 hours of dive time today and almost 2 hours of footage. Great place, just way the hell up here.  The Thermo was cool with the look of going into some kind of time warp. Re: Crosby Mines Conditions? - LKunze - 08-20-2006 I was up there this weekend as well. We did dives at Louise, Mangan, Mahnomen 2 and Alstead. Viz was down from earlier in the summer but still better than anything around the twin cities. |
