Montana Dive Fest 2009

Just got back from the Montana State Dive Fest. What a great time. We had presentations from several speakers on a variety of topics.

The diving was fun- a lot of places to explore. A few divers also got the opportunity to try out full face masks.

Plans are already being made for next year- don't miss out!
