Diving the Carl D. Bradley: Trip Report July 2024

macado

In July 2024 after diving some wrecks in the 230-240ft range out of Harrisville, MI (I should really write a trip report for that too..) in Lake Huron I was lucky enough to be able to get some dives on the Carl D. Bradley with some good friends. The Carl D. Bradley is one of the deeper wrecks in Lake Michigan. She sits in approximately 360-370ft (~112m) at the stern and about 340-350ft (~106m) at the bow. There are obviously deeper wrecks in the Great Lakes such as the Edmund…

I will just start by saying it’s been a really busy summer and I haven’t updated this blog as much as I had hoped but I wanted to write a trip report as I just got back from 4 days of diving in Presque Isle, Michigan.  It was some of the best and well preserved wreck diving that I’ve ever done. Seriously the diving up in Presque Isle, MI and in Thunder Bay National Marine Sanctuary is so worth the trip that I’m already thinking of skipping a warm water vacation…
