I met up with new Lake Monster Brian out at L1 at 6:00am this morning, and the conditions were pretty choppy! We had a steady 5-10 mph wind coming from the southeast, and I was concerned that this might have brought in some of the colder water. Fortunately, that was not the case.
The lake temperature came in at a perfect 68F with no thermoclines. The swim itself was a bit of a challenge, but we managed to get in a short but vigorous workout while we were in the drink. All we were missing were Dave’s inner tubes!

Steve,
You are too kind. I have the utmost respect for you and your crew. Truth be told Lake Michigan kick this Northern Cali swimmers butt.
Like Douglas MacArther, I shall return. Without an army though.
Go Lake Monsters!
