Dive Summary:
This dive passes a known wooden barge wreck visible from the drift. The barge’s mooring bollards and partial framework can be seen protruding from the riverbed. As this is a drift site, divers must plan to pass over the barge at the correct time in the current. GPS or precise surface navigation can assist. Recommended for experienced drift divers only. Ideal for those interested in shallow wreckage exploration under dynamic water movement.
