    Default Cave Diving Condition Reports

    Some of you may have noticed that the automated twitter updates (@CaveConditions) from the cave condition reports site has been down for a week or so. Twitter made some serious changes to how the implement security and I just haven't had the time to work on this until today.

    So, I have fixed the Twitter integration so now all of the condition reports that are made will be updating Twitter as well.

    Hopefully, you guys find this useful and will continue to add condition reports after your dives.

    If I give you a few pics/information for some springs... would you update the site with that information?

    Thanks! The twitter feed allows me to get condition reports via SMS without me having to build an SMS server, maintain addresses, etc.

    Honestly, the Twitter oAuth security change was crazy! However, the work I did allows me to update Facebook as well. And yeah, I have NO Facebook!

    Walter,

    We went here and there's no passable cave (unless it's REALLY well hidden)

    I have caverns in the database as well...Others have noted there is a cave there (not just what is posted in condition reports).

    I think all the reports under Little Blue Springs currently are for Big Blue Springs. I wouldn't be suprised in the slightest if whoever said Little Blue Springs has cave was thinking of one of the other springs on that river. I jumped in at Little Blue Springs and there was no visible vents big enough to stick your arm into, much less your head. I guess its possible if the bottom was excavated substantially that maybe somethings down there, but I highly doubt it. I think this is just a case of mistaken identity.

    Walter, this basically matches what I thought as well. I dove big blue as well after finding nothing at little blue.... short cave but it's there, and there's a small cavern which would match the descriptions given.
