This lake has a clumpy silt that is mixed with algae. This and the tall walls of the Canyons it is named for do much to filter the light entering the water. The outcome is a dark dive that becomes a virtual night dive below 30’. A quality dive light is needed and will allow you to see 20’ and keep track of your dive buddy. Plenty of fish to see along a rocky and sandy bottom and the canyon walls hide plenty of fish in the crevices.
