    Default Any info on P3?

    Has anyone been in P3 since WSPSSP reopened? Want to know if it's worth making the dive there for the sole purpose of diving P3.. Any info appreciated!

    Saturday morning I looked at P3 and didn't see signs of springing eg opening in the duckweed,or other signs of perceptible water movement. Knowing that P3 reversed,and the level of silt intrusion at P1.I suspect it will be silt and more tannicy than P1.

    We were at P3 today and did the Spring tunnel. It's most definitely springing. There was a very noticeable current and you didn't really have to swim much on the way out. The water was also very clear for P3. Dive it while the conditions are right because we were told that it doesn't spring for long when it does. Visibility was around 40-50 feet with slightly more in certain areas, especially the spring tunnel

    Yah it was very nice. It was easier to gear up in P2 and then swim on over.

    I will confirm Tracy's report. We sent in P3 today (Sunday) and it was just like it was advertized.
    Wierd having a flow in your face going in. Vis was very nice all the way up to the Spring Tunnel jump.
    A nice flow in the spring tunnel too. We made it up to the 1st tee with no tanic water observed.
    Turned around and drifted all the way out (SMILE)..

    Then we tried to swim from P3 to P1.
    We were successful but the flow coming from P1 got rather brisk in spots (between P2 and P1).

    All in all , a WONDERFUL DIVE !!!!

    Thanks!
