Cow Springs

[TONY CHANEY]

Very nice video...exactly the way it is (when the flow is up). I have never seen duckweed at Cow. Flooding yes, low flow not yet.

Thanks for the advice everyone.

How was the duckweed in the basin?

Here's what it looked like on 12/20.

You enter through a major restriction - maybe 2-1/2'x 3' square and 4' long.

The definition of "major restriction" I learned is you have to remove some gear to pass it. Do you use another definition?

For the first restriction it would depend on the physical size of the diver. For more than a few of the cave divers I have seen, they could not get through it in back mount unless they shove the tanks through first. I don't doubt that Larry in back mount could squeeze through, and certainly in side mount he could easily fit.

Krispy Kreme is not your friend if you want to dive Cow.

I have a female friend that is 5'5", 180 pounds, and she can make the second restriction in backmounted 104s. Even I'VE been through it (backmount with a buddy bottle), so I don't call it "major."

I go through with My Kiss Classic on my back with lp85's sidemounted.

It is not a major restriction, but it can mess with you mind.

Granted I've only been 2500' into cow but I don't remember running into any spots that required clawing.

Wow In due time I will be diving this system. The NSS-CDS form online- is that the best way to join?
