Looks like I am in for a week of Peacock, and maybe a day at Ginnie then. Oh well, better than nothing.
We were at Ginnie on Friday the 19th, flow was kicking! Peacock and Orange Grove on Saturday the vis was awesome. Never got to LR but Bill said it was "Dusty" but open.

Little River report
I did Little River today, 12/24/08. The basin is flooded and totally black. We ran a line from the stairs to the gold line and I'm amazed we actually found the cave. There was almost zero viz in the basin. The good news is that the conditions in the cave are great. It appears that it hasn't been dived in a while because there was silt even on the gold line. I
love that cave.
See. I am not a liar... we were there on december 20 and the conditions were as you describe them.
We will go back in a coupple of days.

was there any flow? I like this news a lot.
Yes, but is has been 2 years the last time I dive LR so I am not sure if the flow is usual, or less. I would guest on little less flow. No reversing.

Dove Little River on Sunday the 28th.
I have never been there before, so I don't have any reference point; so here it goes.
The water is still up above the walkway around the basin. The entrance area is a bit milky but not too bad. There were lots of swimmers topside that continued to stir up the place.
I would say that there was light flow - my buddy who had been there before estimated it to be about 1/3rd of normal. Vis in the cave looked pretty good but we did not go in very far.
