Exclamation Maps of WastWater

Hi All,
I'm at WastWater next Sunday as part of my Adv RecTri mix Course
was just wondering if anyone in YD land had a map of the lake.

I know I will get all the info. I need from my instructor, I'm being a fanny & would like a copy before hand so I can view it

cheers All

Aaron I dont think you'll find a map on here Scuba Diving the English Lake District but there is a lot of very detailed information about individual lakes dive sites. I think the site is run by Freshwater diver who posts on here.

The "bomber" is at the far Western end. All I have seen is the engine block (see below) which is in between 6m and 8m of water (it's all pretty shallow down there).



The pinnacles are as described in the Fresh Water Diver's excellent website. There is a gnome garden below 45m next to a couple of washing machines. That's as far as I've been but I've been told that it goes far deeper.

HTH, be careful.

Gnome Garden is at 47M. Slopes away gently from there to 67M-ish.

You'll be fine. Take a BIG torch.

Thumbs up

If your at the first site it slopes gently to 10-15m and is VERY silty for 30 - 50m horizontally until you hit the granite rock when it goes over the edge, Its great vis unles someone has been fining the silt up. The guide rope is elevated with the use of plasitc bottles with air in them.

The second site off the Carpark futher on, is just ove the bridge and its a leafy slope down at about 45 degrees. It was greener then and the vis wasn't as great.

Just follow your instructors lead as they woun't leave you to navigate your way round by yourself. More likley they will guide you in and out.
