It will be great to see you there Mike! Yes, the Lakeshore Motel in Iron River is where we all try to stay. If it's full up, there's an AmericInn also in Iron River and it's only 2-3 minutes from the Lakeshore so everyone can still get together in the evenings easily enough. There are campgrounds in the area, too. There's a fabulous grocery, gourmet, and liquor store plus a big box drug store within 2-3 minutes of the motel, too. SwimJim and the Deep Six Dive club have posted quite a bit of information about the Fortune Pond dive site and local amenities on their club website at

There's no scuba shop so bring enough air. I think SheriffDiver may be bringing a compressor but I think he's also bringing a truckfull of full Twin Tanks and Singles... He's the one with the "Highest Cylinder Factor" at the end of the video.
