Chuck thank you for the information. Don't worry I will use extreme caution with this cave! I may dive it one more time before I leave for good.

Don't worry mike its only a few feet from shore, you just have to drive down the lake a ways...also really good fishing.

As far as the sidemount question, from what I understand from what everyone has told me, the first restriction at 200' is sidemount, but if you want to do just the inital portion of the cave as was my intent it is backmount, as you can see with the pictures.
