Best for advanced divers, shore entry.
Old Crow River in Canada is a subarctic freshwater site primarily used for underwater fossil prospecting. Snorkellers explore shallow point bars where Pleistocene fossils, including mammoth, horse, and bison remains, are frequently found on the river bottom. This site is suitable for advanced snorkellers only, as conditions include strong currents, low visibility, and very cold water temperatures. Access is via shore entry. Due to the subarctic climate, water temperatures remain cold throughout the year, with the most manageable conditions occurring during the short summer season.
