    Andrew, I thought you had already put a bunch of line in that cave. I've also heard of a group that's been diving it but don't know how often or if they've made any progress. I've been wanting to get in there just to take a peek, but my schedule keeps getting in the way. I think I'll have to just schedule a day to go there just for to take a look. It sounds really interesting. Thanks for the report.

    Hey rob, that report is two years old. Very cool cave but the vis has sucked every time I've been in it. It's been a bad couple of years for tally diving.

    I have some rudimentary mapping data if you ever do get interested. I have a couple thousand feet of line in two directions.

    Okay, that's more like what I heard. Conditions have been more favorable lately. I actually got to see another system on that property recently. I just haven't had time to try to get in the crack. Have you looked into the one next to the crack? I also want to power snorkel that to see if I can find anything more than a seep. Looks like I have a few free days this month. I might have to make a Tally day of at least one of those days. Although, I do already have another Tally day scheduled this month at another system.

    We tried a couple of the other holes. Nothing seems as promising as the crack. Let me know if you make headway.

    What was the time difference on deco due to the delay (planed vs actual)?

    Great read Andrew! Exciting stuff. I've read that you sidemount your rebreather is this what you were doing on that dive? What rebreather were you on?

    Tallahassee caves have been pretty good as of recent, aside from the Leon Sinks.

    The Crack was also dived by Bruce Ryan better than a decade ago. There are several teams/individuals that have dabbled in it over the last few years.
