Water Hole

[TONY CHANEY]

Sorry to hear about the marks. Ryan and I got it at it's best. The cave was great and not too tight and the walls contained more iron ore? than I have seen to date. Oliver gave us a great briefing that was spot on. So is the brick still there and why is there?

Thats interesting to note since most marks from other divers should have been erased/covered by silt... huh?

For whatever reason the Waterhole didn't seem to have nearly as much sediment in it as the other passages we dove this weekend. There was definitely more damage than could have been caused in just a day of it being open.

Oh yes, you're right about that. The waterhole passage is certainly backmounteable but low in some places and silty, it requires good technique. I dove it several times, first in backmount and now more recently in sidemount.
I was indeed wondering about the alternate shortcut to the waterhole line that is supposedly a sidemount passage.

The short cut isn't marked if you look for it you can see the line from the goldline but just barely. I poked my head in it this weekend on the way out and it looks rather nasty.

I had it wrong. I talked to Mike this evening and you guys did take the marked jump. Sorry for the mistake.
