Alec,

I think Yellowstone lake would be an interesting possibility. Woods Hole
Oceanographic is wrapping up a $5 million dollar project to investigate the
hydrothermal activity at the bottom of the lake using a teeny-weeny little
ROV. They were seeing black smokers and things in <300 feet of water. The
website is here https://hdylake.org/ There are several other volcano
research groups who you could get involved, as well as park rangers, film
crews, etc.

I'd imagine that Yellowstone would be a bit trickier than Tahoe. There's
more traffic in the summer, it's completely snowed in in the winter, and
you'd need to get a research permit from the park officials (or piggy back
off of someone who already has one) in order to dive.

Thanks,

-River J. Dolfi
