    Default Orange grove sink

    Dove Saturday,6/14/2014, with a team of 3 toward Cisteen. The flow was way down but the silt was way up. Some of the low areas had silt so thick that the clearance was less than normal. A slow deliberate frog kick was required for the entire dive.
    The Viz was no better than 20 ft. and the water was cloudy. We saw no other divers in the cave. We did see a team at the entrance of the cave but they turned and exited at the sign before going any further.
    A good dive but one that takes a careful diver. We only did a 71 minute dive but at least it is open and no duck weed to deal with.

    Default Orange grove sink

    I was with a team of 4 today. Orange Grove was beautiful!
    Good vis. A little flow. Was like there never was a flood. Wonderful dive.
    The basin was absolutely gorgeous. Rare to see it like this.
