    Default Anderson Spring

    Is there a good map of Anderson Spring, or does anyone have survey data for it?

    I'd love to see one as well if anyone has that. That is a fun little cave.

    Everyone spends the first nine months of life in water. The lucky ones make frequent return visits.

    Someone was remapping Anderson, but I haven't heard anything since then. I have a PDF of an old sketched map.

    Hey, thanks Forest....love diving there. Remember my last dive there and on exiting, I thought the rocks at the entrance could be moved to make it a bit larger. BAD IDEA..... after I moved one rock....5 more came down making the entrance, or in my case the exit smaller....wont do that again....spent what seemed hours (actually only 5 minutes) digging my way out...Ken

    Along that same line I had a talk with a couple of divers about their experience. They were setting up the dive putting O2 bottles in it and one of them sort of got stuck exiting and blocked the flow. Apparently the sand up above the rocks is held in check by the flow and it fell in covering the bottles and put them in zero vis. They both managed to exit and after checking to see if they needed toilet paper went back after 20-30 min and the flow had cleared all the sand out and unburied their tanks. I wish I remember their names but if your reading this you could add more or make corrections since this is what I remember they told me. It would I am sure get any one's attention to have a dive like that..

    I never had trouble at the entrance except fighting the flow. But several years ago me and my buddy made a right at the T instead of a left (mistake). Going in was absolutly beautiful. When we turned the vis was zero which was OK but then he got stuck and the line slipped off a wrap. I was very stressed as I thought the line broke. I didn't give up , got him unstuck and ended the dive alive. When we got back to the main line the vis was clear. Its still my favorite cave.
