    Default Flow at Ginnie

    Has the flow reduced with the increase in water levels?

    The flow seemed up to me last Wednesday the 23rd.

    I have not been to Ginnie in a few weeks, but in general, the higher the river, the less the flow. This is to say, flow is kicking when the river level is down.

    There is no limit. We'll always find a way to go deeper and deeper. That's been the pattern all along.

    We only went as far as the gold line this weekend (from both entrances). The flow up to that point seemed only slightly low to me.

    Shirley you're not serious? No, I'm not, but do stop calling me Shirley.

    Every time I go to Devil's I think the flow is about as high as I've ever felt. But yesterday I really did think it was up. Forrest didn't disagree with me.

    Land of Enchantment -- not so great for cave diving, but mighty scenic!

    I went in via the Eye today and the flow was as strong as I have ever felt it. Granted I was holding onto a camera with one hand (it felt like a sail).

    Barbara, when are you going to learn not to listen to newbies?

    I've done about 4-6 dives in Ginnie over the last few days, including last night at midnight. My experience at Ginnie is limited but all I can say is that the flow is kickin'. It is not much different than when I was here a couple weeks ago nor is it much different than my time here in August. It still kicks my a$$.
