    Default Little River 4/27/15

    Amazing. Low flow and high vis.

    I really feel like this was the first time I was able to both dive it and actually look around and SEE the cave. If it were like that all the time I'd probably go a lot more often!

    What's the water level in the spring pool now? Is it still over the cement or has it gone back down?

    That is a great dive with low flow!!! How was the silt on the horizontal surfaces?

    "Is this thing on?"

    The water is still up over the cement wall. The basin is clear too. Standing on the "sidewalk" the water is about chest deep.

    Jay: what silt?

    We dove it Sunday with about same conditions but I am giving up on LR until I am at full cave, it was just a struggle to stay above 100'. Made it further than I ever have before but ceiling was still at 95' when we turned because my computer was about to put me into deco, does it ever come up from 95' ?? I think Pete said we hit the "Y" in the gold line but didn't see what he was talking about.

    If you hit the "Y" which takes you to the Florida Room you would know.

    You might... I more than likely wouldn't... specially if we were just before it, which we likely were.

    I was there Saturday and the conditions were great as reported. It was only my 4th dive in Little River but the best overall conditions I have ever encountered there. As I was coming out of the cave I heard a boat motor. Apparently someone decided they needed to drive their boat all the way up the run. The locals took it upon themselves to let him know he was not supposed to do that. He got mouthy with the locals and some choice words were thrown about and his woman and another one got into a fight. I am sorry I missed this fine display of Florida Cracker lady like behavior but my girlfriend filled me in as she had a front row seat while sitting in my boat.
