Company Profile
Dave and Carolyn Bakker, the owners, are both avid divers. Not only do they dive locally in Montana`s beautiful reservoirs and pristine mountain lakes, but they also enjoy dive travel. ``Diving in Montana gives us a great way to enjoy a part of the state that few people get the opportunity to see. It also keeps those skills tuned up for trips to the ocean. Whether is diving in the cold, but beautiful waters of the San Juan Islands of Washington state or the warm blue waters of the Caribbean, we`re ready to go.`` says Carolyn, the store`s business manager.
``I love seeing others when they first learn to dive``, explains Dave Bakker, a PADI Staff Instructor, ``The look on their face when they take their first breath underwater is priceless to me.``
Dave and Carolyn, and their friendly well qualified staff, will be happy to meet you, to discuss your scuba diving needs, or just to tell dive stories. Stop by the store during these hours or join them on a dive weekend.
Owning your own gear is a great way to add to your enjoyment of scuba diving. It also will increase your safety. Knowing how your gear works and how it has been taken care of can make the difference from an okay dive and a great diving experience. At Adventure Scuba , we believe that the selection of equipment should be based on the individual. Our staff will work with you to select the equipment that fits your style as well as your budget. To accomplish this, we have aligned our selves with the dive industries finest manufacturers.
We also believe that the best way to service our customer is face to face. This web page is not an offer to sell scuba equipment via the internet or by mail order. We invite you to visit our stores, so that we can do what we do best- help you with your selection and service it after the sale.
Location description: Discover Diving in Montana
The Big Horn Canyon National Recreation Area is a great dive location. The reservoir was created by a hydro electric dam built on the Big Horn River. The canyon walls are steep and continue past the water level, creating a interesting topography. The fish are timid, but can be found if patient. Typical fish to be found are carp, ling, wall eye and small mouth bass. The reservoir is 50 miles long, the southern end is in Wyoming. The area is a popular spot for fishermen and water skiers. The canyon has many little coves off the main canyon that allow the divers and fishermen to get away from skier traffic.
Boats are necessary to access the dive sites. Boat rentals are available at the marina. Air fills from the Montana end are available at Adventure Scuba in Billings. Nitrox is also available.
Water Temperature ranges between 65- 75 degrees, visablity of about 10 - 30 feet during summer, better in the fall. Thermo clines should be expected. Recommended exposure wear would be 7mm wetsuits or dry suits.
All dives in Montana are high altitude dives and proper training in dive planning for altitude is recommended. Local orientation dives available through Adventure Scuba.
Lake McDonald, Glacier National Park
Apgar in on the southern end of the lake as you enter the park. We were diving what is know as the debris field. In the 1930`s the items were staged on the ice then fell through. From the boat dock descend to a depth of 35-80 ft. and head to the west, your left, and you will find various items from shovels, rakes, wood stoves, sinks, toilets, motor blocks, plates, bowls, etc. Remember this is in the national park and is not to be removed. The water is cold year around, winter 33°F to 50°F summer. The visibility is best from late summer until early spring when the run-off begins.
