Ice diving

[Shooter]

It was an absolutely gorgeous today, with temperatures in the 40s.  I forgot my sunscreen and ended up with a  Little bit of a sunburn :'( the resort owner had even hauled out a ice fishing house for heated changing station.  At least I think it was heated.  I changed on the ice. The ice was still plenty thick, I would estimate a little over 3 feet.  Art,  I'm glad we didn't try set up on mille lacs,that would be a lot of hand sawing to do. 18 inch chainsaw bar, 18 inch handsaw, makes me tired just thinking about it!  We were in about 12 to 15 feet of water, with about the same of visibility.  The water seemed unusually warm.  The only part that got mildly cold was my right hand.  That was in a wet glove.  Some miscellaneous trash and ice fishing equipment found no anchors or other type of treasures found.  I will continue my search for gold, diamonds, and cash.

I only have a few surface pictures to post as my camera housing seal does not like cold temperatures and leaked a little bit.  I guess I need to prewarm it prior to my dive.
