Jackson Blue Conditions?

[Kelly Jessop]

In mid April, before the recent storm, the flow was so high that if you ran a Viper on speed 2, you weren't going much faster than swimming speed, between the 2nd breakdown, and the 1st T. If it is flowing faster now, a Viper would probably not be moving at all on speed 2.

Hmmm...remember Madison (when owned by the Bruics and scootering was allowed) when the flow was so strong that my Tekna was on 9,and I was pulling..pulling...pulling to move. I gave up before Martz. I learned an important lesson that day,don't stop the dive in current that strong and let off the trigger. I had Tekna imprinted in my forehead.

Yea, I remember those days.

It is conditions like this that will really develop a divers skill. Call me crazy, but I drive two hours one way, sometimes once a week, to brave this stuff.

You are right. It really teaches you how to read a cave.

Would one of you guys who read the cave well enough to not pull on the cave the whole way in this type of flow be kind enough to post a video of how you're doing this?

This falls into the category as " Do as I Say and not Do as I Do".

Easy, use a scooter

There are some of us that don't scooter, just like some that don't do Face Book.

I agree it would be good to get some pointers and guidance on how to read caves ideally with pictures for people like me.

Thanks

Read cave = ask someone the best route to go.

Congrats, now you too can "read" a cave and tell other people how to "read" it.
