    Default Peacock....Nicholson/Cisteen line?

    Anyone done the Nicholson/Cisteen/Olsen loop lately?
    Done it many times, but it's been years since the last.
    PM me if you've been there so I can confirm my memory of the lines.

    Thanks

    from P1 headed toward Olsen, the first jump to the right after pothole is Nicholson. At the end of the Nicholson line you'll end up facing the cisteen line. Left goes back toward the main line, right goes up to cisteen / the crypt.


    The second jump to the right after pothole is the cisteen line itself.

    How about looking at Caveatlas.com

    Maps are under the resource tab.

    It doesn't show you where the lines go.

    Oops, of course it doesn't. Back to your regular scheduled program.

    When you're in that area keep your eyes open and you may see something cool in the walls.

    Had a nice dive yesterday....P-1 to Cisteen jump, past Nicholson jump, past both Wishbone jumps (red arrows on main line mark these and Cisteen and Crypt quite well), then up to the Olsen jump, Only caveat is that the line for the last 30-40 ft. to the Olsen jump has been pulled loose and then badly retied at the jump...line commitee may want to address that.
    Visibility is stellar up in that area.
    Back to P-1 via Crossover/BD Room.....very clear in that area as well. Basin as clear as it's been in a long time.

    Sadly, there is no longer a line committee. The divers have to do their own line maintenance.

    Wish I'd known that, would have attempted a fix. Once we got to the Olsen side of the jump my buddy was more relaxed, we had lots of gas, could have taken the time. Did the whole dive on roughly halves (sm 95's pumped to 3300.).
    It's not a dangerous line situation, just sloppy.
