The Grand Tour

[Walter Pickel]

I had to swim without fins on in Full Cave class

Who taught your Cave Diver class?

So...what is it called when you go P1 to Orange Grove, then back?

We called Peacock I to Orange Grove the Perverse Reverse Traverse.

But not on 1/3s....

Yes, on thirds. My first time doing the Mile Run for my "graduation" dive I used 1300psi from a set of 95s. My SAC rate is lower now.

With a stage, piece of cake. The most difficult part would be that I don't have a P-valve on my drysuit, and that dive would take three hours.

On a dive in Peacock what would be your average breath per minute?

One?



I have no idea.

[MORGAN]

I have no idea.

This made me curious. I pulled out my logbook and a calculator.

Rick used 179 CF to do the Mile Run. When I did it in February I used 158 CF. You did it on 93 CF. So you aren't breathing too darn often!

Yeah, BobK hates my guts.

I have to call B.S. on this one, or you have to prove it to me someday.

I may have to call B.S. on this one, or you may have to prove it to me someday.

I don't doubt it - I've never dove with Sludge, but I've had more than one cave buddy with SAC rates in that range.

I can't seem to get mine below about 0.65. Probably I'm too stout, or I drink too much stout, or both...

Edit: Disregard that last comment, I misread the original post, I thought Sludge was talking about the GT on an Alum 80 only.
