Contrary to rumors...........Ginnie Springs is OPEN and the visibility in Devils System is clear
Confirmed,
See dive report
Please keep this thread updated since Ginnie once again becomes the center of the universe. Do you think it will keep open this week?
And i can second that one, for me it is "off-beaten" of my path due to its refined environment and cost of a trip. But on a floody time there is not much to choose from.
On WED JUL-20, yesterday. Water level in Santa Fe is going down. Ear is still tanic, flow in Gallery is picking up quickly but didn't reach usual strength.

Oh that was you? I went to dig some dirt from Little D. to burn some leftover gas after having short deco and then returned to Turkey Breast(?) parking stairs. You had one of your lights halogen 50w right? I was trying to read a message on a back of your doubles but i don't remember it. Also i have a question: did you go into July spring syphon yesterday?Quote:

Yea, I know...it was the Hillier tunnel...I just had to take the opportunity to make a smartass remark. I won't be there this weekend, I have to work....but I think John said he'll be up there this weekend.Quote:
