If you get to a certain reservoir early enough and there’s no wind, you’re treated to beautifully glassy water. They’re restricting motorboat access this year to curb invasive species which means more lake for we paddlers!

[anecdotally, I have experienced this scuba diving in a drysuit in WA and BC, especially in freshwater, so it is wonderful to see some background]

[A very comprehensive hydrographic and shallow geophysical study and mapping effort of Lake Titicaca…]
“In October 2024, officers from the Category “A” Specialization Programme in Hydrography for Naval Officers of the Peruvian Navy conducted their complex multidisciplinary field project at Lake Titicaca at Puno in Peru, which is the highest navigable lake in the world (3,800 metres above sea level). The purpose of this survey was to address issues in the lacustrine environment due to hydrological processes that have occurred in recent years in this water body.…”
