Hi Potlid, thanks for the story and the pictures. I like the oyster on the bottle. I dove about five years ago on Orcas Island WA in the Pugent Sound looking for octopus I only found a school of 4'-7' sandsharks 75' down w three foot vis. That part of the countries is amazing on land and underwater. Nice finds, Happy New Year. Kevin

Don't you just love 80 foot vizzzzzzz and all of the incredible sea life. At Ogden Point in Victoria , one can feed Wolf eel 12 feet long by hand.......careful to count your fingers.... I have never seen a 10 foot Octopus, but I hear they are there. Beautiful BC....

Happy New Year to you & yours.

I wish it was 80 on the day I went, the Dive Master said some type of sea life was spawning in the area. I did see lots of life in other areas, never saw the octopus and sharks absolutely terrify me(longest saftey stop of my life). I agree the Creator did know a thing or two by the time he got to that area of the Pacific Rim. If your ever looking to trade some dove east coast for some dove west coast bottles let me know. I expect you will have a part two to this story, I will be looking forward to it. Kevin

Nice story and bottle finds. British Columbia is sure beautiful . Whistler is a place everyone on earth should be entitled to see. I guess that's why half my family live there. The next time I visit I will surely inquire of local bottles.
Snow capped Mt Baker in Washington State is sure a beautiful site too !!
