Great to get in an ice dive in this weird winter. Thanks to the Itasca County Search and Rescue and Dive Team for putting on the dives today. They set up the dive as part of a research project for Divers Alert Network to study the higher level of heart incidents in Public Safety Diving than other types of diving.

Every diver had an EKG before and after their dive. Before the dive the tech said my heart was perfect. She didn't have any comments after the dive though...

We had a great time today at the Bemidji Jaycees BRRRmidji Plunge! Ryan Neely and Chris Westlund had front row seats in the water as 104 different jumpers took the plunge this year.

Thank you for letting us be a part of the fun Bemidji Jaycees!

While we have several capable divers on the Lakes Area Dive Team, we have a very specialized piece of equipment that we use often to assist us with search and recovery. We just completed a training with it near Walker, Minnesota before the cold weather hit!

Our submersible remotely operated vehicle (ROV) is equipped with sonar, a front facing camera and a mechanical arm that is controlled by the operator. The ROV can be operated from several hundred feet away with it's tether system.

This allows our team to search large areas of water from a safe position, and we can do so without tiring out our dive team or putting them at risk. This can be very important when responding to calls that involve thin ice conditions.

The Lakes Area Dive Team is a non profit volunteer organization that assists local counties with public safety dive operations.
