Hello fellow divers,
This note was sent to me thru a sporting organization that I belong to.  I think
that anyone who has dived Isle Royale might be alarmed by this.

It appears that this is the tip of the iceberg.  If the park is closed to hikers
and conoeists and the public in general, us divers will probably be included
also.  The current park service has a restriction of 140 ffw for the wrecks
there.  If you can take the cold, you will find a bunch of fantastic dive sites
from 0ffw to 200+ffw.  I would hate to see this area controled by a bunch of
fuzzy foriegners, if you know what I mean.

I don't know who to bitch to yet, but I am going to find out.  I certainly don't
want to lose another dive site either open water or cave.

Any ideas out there to help address this situation?

Thanks,
Randy Z.
