Depth to 18 feet, maybe more if you hunt around a bit. Visibility is a foot or so, very dark, which makes seeing anything unlikely or lucky. Being within 100 feet of the dam is illegal. You must be careful to be behind the low head portion of the dam, and not in the race channel to the hydro plant, or current can become unmanageable. This most likely is not a dive that is worth the trouble to most folks, unless you enjoy dark and claustrophobic conditions. A boat is advised, and surface support.
