Re: new diver in Duluth
Welcome to the board.  Minnesota cold water diving is much different from the diving you did in Maui.  Dry suits are the norm around here and at a very minimum a 7mm wet suit is needed.  Duluth is a great location for diving.  Besides Lake Superior you also have Ore Be Gone, Lake Mine and St. James pits to dive which I believe are only around a 60 mile drive away from Duluth.  I'd recommend you talk to some of our Duluth members such as flyboy65 and see if you can join them for some dives.  As far as training goes you should definitely get an advanced certification.  The conditions are a bit more challenging and gear intensive than warm water diving but it's worth it.  Good luck!
