The Goodman Siphon jump, sometimes referred to as the "left horseshoe", has been changed somewhat. On the upstream end of the jump, the line begins on the left side of the cave in the same area where previously it began on the right side. The line now stays off the ceiling for the most part and remains to the diver's left side as he/she swims to the T. Previously the lines from the T came to an end within 30' of each other at a depth of about 50'. Those two lines are now connected to form a continuous loop. There is one line arrow at the T and one line arrow midway between the T and the upstream entrance, both point to the upstream entrance which is at a depth of 90'.

Jim,
Thanks for cleaning that line up. Shawn and I did a line break re-tie at the downstream restriction our last time in there. It was banjo string tight and much of it needed attention. Thanks again for taking care of it.
Safe Diving,
