    Uh, no. It looks like the company is trying to make a profit by taking people to Madison Blue. The only dive fee is the regular park admission.

    Interesting. The website hasn't changed only allowing cavern and cave diving

    What Forrest said - I believe the current fee is $5 per car.

    Safe diving,

    I believe this is an old document. Looks like something I've seen before....many moons ago.

    I recognize that form.

    American Canoe Adventurers was the interim concessionaires circa 2003-05, the gate keepers the state used after the state bought the property but prior to them getting rangers (me and a guy named Daniel) to clean up the place and have the park opened to the public with regular hours.

    The gate was kept locked and it was very difficult to get them (ACA) to meet you at the park to let you in.

    The park is now run by the state with park rangers, regular state park hours (sun up to sun set). I do not know the current cave diving rules.

    Thanks for all of the input. We went. Had a blast. Decided Intro to Cave is in my future right when I got to the end of the cavern zone. Need more gas, more light, more line, more training. I took a photograph of the current rules in case anyone else is looking and unfortunately they are not posted on the park's website.

    Thanks for the update! I'll be there next month. What'd you think about the park? Bringing some non-divers along.

    Nice park. Plenty of shaded areas and bath house (no showers). Trails leading to the river and to the spring.

    I haven't been there in yeas. They must have gotten rid of the showers, I know they had them because I used to have to clean the damn things lol
