    Default Collapse in Matachuck

    The ceiling collapsed at around survey marker 43(?) on the gold line burying about 10ft of it.

    Its easily passable still, just an FYI if someone is diving there

    It is worth knowing if this section is unstable or a threat of collapsing again. A small PVC pipe marked in some graduation placed at the apex of the pile will help identify if this is very active or not, and a threat to divers.

    Where abouts is the collapse on the map. I don?t think I have been in there since it did it.

    Always liked your map Ryan. If I remember correctly, it was about halfway to 2/3. Easily passable. Hunsucker and I checked around the area and nothing else seemed unstable.

    I think it's where the cave takes a hard left
