[ This was a dive in the Illonois River located in the town of Selma Oregon. The site is situated at the end of a very rough road, which requires a four wheel drive vehicle to get to. The staff at Seahorse gave me a ride out there. This dive site was beautiful. The river flows through a narrow rocky canyon bottom, with pebbled river bottom, sculpted ledges, and fish. The current was easily swam against and provided a leisure drift dive on the return to the entry/exit point.The staff at Seahorse were great! I traveled with a drysuit, but really could have used a wetsuit. When you are done trying rafting go diving in an Oregon river. |
