    Didn't even think of scavenging.

    I suppose this might be one of those questions best asked outside of the public domain.

There a few systems that have some cool line arrows that mean something,but they are inaccessible parts of caves, or people don't know that name, they haven't disappeared.
    I'd love to see S.Gerrard's collection of collected arrows

All the more reason to leave those markers where you find them. A while back, I came across a marker with Carl Sutton's name on it. How many folks out there remember him? On this forum, only a hand full at best!
    Who's Carl...not a name i recognize. I guess its another story for when im in town

    Ironically I have an "Aquatech" line arrow from the line arrow wars in Mexico.

    I have seen it. It was in two 5 gallon buckets. The funny part is Aquatech wanted me to endorse what they were doing

    It really blew up out of proportions, and because of that, some line arrows were being pulled weren't being reinstalled correctly, and there were some incidents. We had the same problem with line placement in certain caves. Egos battle in cave diving, people can get hurt.

    You can have another if you like. The red arrow at stage bottle rock in Ginnie is an Aquatech arrow; I recycled it and put it there when the old one broke a few years ago.
