Little River rising

[ScubaGypsy]

Did 2 dives today at Little River but based on the conditions I expect that there will be no diving for the next few weeks.

When I first arrived today at 1230, the water was over the cement sidewalks and up to the first step. I followed another teams line into the cave while laying my own line as well with both of us tying off at the steps. It was a braille dive until one reached the cavern zone. Once in the cave the conditions were good with minimal flow and 50'+ visibility.

After completing the first dive and eating lunch, I did a second dive. The water had risen just up to the first platform when I went in at 1530. The river water was ~ 65 F and the no visibility zone was now extended down to the Grim Reaper sign. Once again the cave itself was splendid! I exited around 1645 and took the following pictures at 1700. Obviously the water is continuing to rise. The river water is also dirty looking.
