Twin Cave and Hole In The Wall Update

[Kenny P.]

I had a class this weekend at the millpond but was unable to get any recent report on conditions of anything but JB. We took a boat out from Cave Adventurers Saturday the 8th and checked out both Hole and Twin. We dived both caves and were surprised at the conditions. Hole was clear at the surface and vis. was very managable upstream to 500' or so, where we turned on student's gas. There was good flow coming out of the spring vent.
We motor'd over to Twin and tied up and checked it to the back of the cavern. It was milky but, vis. was easily 40' + in most areas. There was cold water intrusion at Skile's Passage. I've never seen this before. A good day of diving after all!
We dove Jackson Blue today and vis. continues to improve. Before all the teams got in the water, the vis. was easily 50'+ from the cavern to 400' or so.
Many thanks to Brian Hamilton for his help with the system checks and class.
Hope all systems continue to clear.

That's great news. The last time I was in Twin, the visibility was less than 3'. The time before that I did feel cold water intrusion down in the deep section of Twin.

Unless we were to get more crazy large rains, I think Twin will continue to clear. Hole In The Wall is always a mystery. It is apt to change from one day to the next.

Last time I was at Twin(I think in Jan) there was some cold water intrusion as well, glad to hear its divable again. Looking forward to getting back into both these caves before too too long. Thanks for the report Kenny P!

Yea, I was surprised but very happy to find the improving conditions at Twin & Hole. The class got a big thrill out it for sure. Hopefully it will get better and better!
Thanks,

Was there and got many dives in both Twin and Hole in Dec and first few days of Jan. I guess I felt the COLD water but it was still warm from what we got and the vis was stil lmuch better then what I amused to up here. I can tell it was down from the last trip back in April of last year.

Plan to be back down there in mid of April again this year.
