    Also , it IS a syphon back there ... (SMILE).
    We've been back there to the EOL , turned around , and had a "nice" little breeze in our face , so to speak!!!

    It's actually not very silty back there at all. The duckunder going into the last little room can be a little poofy though.

    Thanks!

    There's a room to the right that looks pretty cool, I'd like to check it out some time.. I heard it leads back to the cavern.

    If you go to the right before the pothole cliff you can meander your way down to the P II line. Not much traffic and very silty, so run a line.
    I believe this is where Sheck scrambled out after a low air incident in the early days of his career.

    A little poofy? Love your terminology, Jeano. All my OW students get a gear orientation that includes "breathy things on the right, floaty things on the left". Thanks for that.

    When I was there about a half year ago, I thought it was dank and silty. Easy enough to stay above the silt, but you'd be better to pay attention. It wasn't super tall passage, but I don't think I did any silting.

    It slightly siphoned for us, too, but not too bad. I'm sure it could be more alarming to turn around if there were more current than that day.

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

    We were there right before the flood, so it was probably dingier than usual.

    I'm guessing a mask is a lookie thingie and fins are swimmie thingies. What's a snorkel - a suckie thingie?
