P3 Conditions?

[sandy]

For anyone who has dove (or seen) P3 lately, what are current conditions?

Thanks for your help.

Not sure of the cave's condition, but myself and 2 others did a cavern dive there on Sunday. The basin was covered in duckweed, and the cavern was pretty silty.

vis is about 20-30. pretty noticeable siphon
you can see a really strong flow in the run into p3. enough to push you down the run when you're floating there on the surface.
this is as of 2 weeks ago. might be different now

Thanks for the info. Can P3 be done in backmount?


Thanks.

[Gary]

yes

It actually tends more to a "big creepy rooms with low vis." don't get off the line farther than you can see it - motif. (at least in the beginning)

more like big AWESOME rooms with low vis

I'm on a big p3 kick at the moment :P

We were there on Sunday but had a hard time locating the mainline. We went down past the sign and ran a line until it started getting fairly tight. We still did not see the gold line. Did we completely miss something?

Ok, thanks. We went straight.

And now you understand the phrase "on the straight and narrow"
