Lost apeks 2nd stage somewhere between entrance and insulation room circuit
Good thing you didn't need it. How do you loose a 2nd stage?
An independent diver.
It happens alot more than it should (not to me, in general). Sometimes its a connection loosened naturally, sometimes its people who believe only finger tight on the second stage hose. But either way they?re banging their stage or bailout bottle on stuff not paying attention and knock the reg off.Originally Posted by bletso

Have a real estate question (anywhere)? Drop me a line.
Out of curiosity is coathangers an autocorrect error for catacombs or is there a spot referred to as coat hangers. I?ve never heard that one.

The dogleg on mainline between p.1200' and p.1300' is coathangers.... I'm dating myself, but it was called that in the Berman map.

That is correct, there used to be a coat hanger attached to some lead weights to anchor the line in this location.

You're telling your age. Where is the "other" coathanger location in Ginnie?? It's still there. I was showing it to a student a while back!
Those weights are held in place now by a piece of gold kernmantle.
