Actually a line committee member did a dive today and found inches of viz on the gold line. Realize Peacock flooding doesn't come up the spring run first,but infiltrates up tannic vents from the river. So flooding comes from within,but what is so bad is that with the aquifer depleted so bad,there is nothing to stop this flow.Originally Posted by Greenwood_60

Thanks to Rick Crawford for going. Rick helps us maintain the lines, the signs and helps us keep the park manager up to date on conditions.

Hart is also blown, Just got back from a sight seeing tour; Little Hart is a swirling, tannic suckhole!
Yep I was diving with Rick today or planning on it anyways. Peacock is one giant mud puddle. I will post up some pics I took today.
Got the info I needed. Thanks.

Didn't I overhear a conversation when last I was in Florida that we need SEVERAL of these events, soon, to even make a dent in the water deficit?
Yes, and you wouldn't believe at how localized this one was. I'm only a couple of hundred miles north, and we didn't get any rain to speak of.
And perhaps GA and TN is where it's needed most to recharge the deep aquaifer?
