    What is really funny is that is not even close to what he said after the search and recovery.

    Roughly 40'. The nest ain't what she used to be. Basin was 50' or so, cavern sucked, maybe 20-30. It got clearer as we got further, with the clearing (such as it is) starting once through the pit.

    That is pretty accurate,but if someone is describing 20ft, sounds more like a river cave

    There were some classes going on, so that might have contributed to the lower vis. But it was definitely less than when I was there a few weeks ago.

    Surprisingly easy to tell that other people were there, too

    And I've only been diving there since 2009. I'd love to have sen it in the 80's. Quite frankly, if I had to dive there now on OC, I believe I'd have to pass. Nothing like using $5.00 worth of helium for a Nest dive��.
