We were there middle last week, the water was about a foot or more higher than seen in your pic. Flow wasn't bad and we we had a good dive.

This post brings me to ask a question to those who are familiar with Little River and it's conditions further into the system. Tracy and I did a dive there on Sunday the 14th this month. Water level and conditions the same as the above picture. Further back in the system I believe around where all the tunnels split off to the deep sections and such we continued on gold line towards the last room. It was at that point the visibility got poor. It was strange to see the system go from very clear to what I would consider rather poor in the matter of a few feet. As we progressed towards the well casing visibility got increasingly worse. Does the passage leading to the well casing usually push out dirty water and the clear water from the other passages make for good visibility up to that point or was this a rarity? On the way out we hit the opposite side of the big arrow and headed inbound to the second t. When I stopped and looked down the Harper tunnel it appeared to have cloudy water in it also.
