Im assuming its minimal flow?
Im assuming its minimal flow?
flow was still pretty stiff on wednesday.
I too dove Wednesday. Flow was nominal, not normal Ginnie high.

Flow felt higher than pre Irma between 2k and the Henkel. Several tie offs were loose between the Henkel and Berman rooms; they are now fixed. Viz was in the low 20's and tannic on hill 400 especially around double lines. Hillier is slightly clearer, but double domes are extremely tannic. The last dome room has ~6" of viz. Bone line and gold line back to Henkel vary from high 20's to 40's.
Very cool dive right now, it feels like a different cave. There is black river silt and debris scattered around the cave and the water is green rather than blue. Definitely carries a spooky river cave feel.
Had a trip planned to Ginnie just before Irma as my pass was expiring on Sept.29...went yesterday hoping they would let me get a few dives in by extending my pass for the time they were closed (this was what they a while back when they were closed just a week). Anyway no joy my pass was expired and I did not get to dive using it. Wanted to protest but hearing that there was a management change (Rose is gone) I assumed that things may be different there, it will be interesting to watch the silt settle....Bill
