    Default Hart guides

    I've never been in Hart and would like to check it out. I have all the qualifications. Anyone know of any guides that are active and might be interested in going?


    Thanks

    There will be a CDS Workshop at Hart Springs January 14-16 that will include guided dives of the Black Lagoon. the 100 dive/Abe Davis will not be a requirement for these dives and the workshop looks interesting.....

    Sounds awesome!

    My mistake...... guided dives will be in Little Hart for full cave with less than 100 dives and with 100 dives or an Abe Davis you can do a guided dive in Black Lagoon

    Yes, Wayne can & Lamar can if he has time. I believe the Hart website has a list of guides.

    I am pretty sure you can dive little Hart without a guide, but let me ask first.

    Here is the website, clear as mud :-(

    Anyone with over a hundred dives can dive Little Hart UNguided. You must show Full Cave cert, 100 dives, and insurance (DAN or equivalent). I can guide at Black Lagoon (or Little Hart) if any one wishes to dive. Conditions are prime right now; the cave is blue, LH is blowing hard but the flow tapers off as you get into the larger portion of the cave.
