Bear Lake, Blue Lake, Fish Lake and Lake Powell are a few spots that draw area divers. Such information may be news to anyone who has walked by one of these scuba shops and laughed at the idea of someone from the Wasatch Mountains taking up a sport like scuba div:- g. An education on the underwater sport is not too far away. According to those in the business, there are enough students in Utah to keep them busy One shop boasts that it has an active mailing list of about 1,000. And dives continue year-roun- d even here in Utah, in warm spring-fe- d lakes like Blue Lake. Unlike other sports, scuba diving is not cited as a good way to develop tremendous conditioning. It also doesnt feed the competitive athletes ego like others do. Dealers in the valley seem to be billing the sport as an experience or even as entertainment, and not as a body builder. Improvements in the equipment and in teaching techniques have made the sport simple and easy to do, according to Pat Dunn of Thunder Island Divers.

That contest is to be sponsored by two scuba shops in the valley, Neptune Divers, 2445 S. 900 East, and Thunder Island Divers, 2520 W. 4700 South. ' And if such murky gooey contests seem juvenile, Utah divers in the area can look forward to other events. Some of the events take place in such exotic locales as Hawaii, the Caribbean, California, Micronesia and the Philippines. For the complete variety, one must check in with Scuba Utah, 2356 S.

The beginning student is also likely to get a slide show that sells diving as a sport for those who are reaching out for relief and are getting more frustrations from their recreational sports. Diving is the thrill of victory without the agony of defeat, according to the film strip that is produced by the Professional Association of Diving Instructors.
