    The whole point of the NDL is that a diver in an emergency can directly ascent to the surface and this is the limit the diver has been trained for: Emergency rely on buddy or direct ascent to surface.
    At 122' in Buford you're not really in a area that is not a direct ascent.

    Looking at going out on Sunday. We have had a TON of rain lately - has anyone been to Buford this week?

    Some particulate near the top due to freedivers on November 2nd, but it was clear top to bottom. I'll be going back tomorrow afternoon as well. Been dry as a bone lately around here
