Wolf River at Shawano
With the balmy weather on Sunday, we took a nice dive in the Wolf River below the Shawano dam. The water was 32-33 degrees Farnheit which is just right to avoid overheating during an hour long dive. Clarity was reasonable and there were a lot of sturgeon on the water. This made for a nice chance to take pictures the wildlife.

Re: Wolf River at Shawano
I can not get the pictures to upload. I keep getting the message that the picture upload directory is not writable. Hopefully someone can figure this out. There are other pictures that I hope to load.

Re: Wolf River at Shawano
Are there any special permits or permissions needed to dive there?

Re: Wolf River at Shawano
No special permits are required, but good judgement is required due to the conditions present. There is cold, current, and potentially ice. The water doesn't move crazy fast there, but it is enough to let you appreciate it. IIRC depths were 7-12 feet. This isn't a knock on your abilities, because I have no idea what they are, but the dive really isn't for the faint at heart. |

Re: Wolf River at Shawano
Plenty of cold and ice experience, not a lot of current experience. Thanks for the info

Re: Wolf River at Shawano
There are a lot of lamprey on the sturgeon, something that I have not seen before.
Also, some sturgeon are tagged. Hope that you enjoy the pictures. Doug |
