    Default Line heading to whale bone at Ginnie

    During a dive today at Ginnie. Started out at the Eye up Mainline to Hill 400 line. Jumped at 1000' to the Siphon Tunnel. The next jump is Double Line tunnel. The tunnel right after this which has no line arrows and according to the map leads to a whale bone. On a solo dive today with my Meg swam to check it out. I used a medium size sidewinder reel swam a good ways down the tunnel (ran out of line on the reel) but never found a jump line for that tunnel. Did I miss it?

    Max depth 95'
    131 minutes
    setpoint 1.2
    21 minutes of deco
    flow seemed up from a few weeks ago
    water temp 72
    100' Vis

    Thanks to Ralph for the scooter tow down Little Devil's Heading for the Eye.

    I've always found that bone to be a ***** to find. It's a tricky part of the cave! Just persevere...

    It's real easy to find if you know where you look.

    I guess I lucked out with a real good buddy who showed me an easy way to find it.

    no, you didn't miss the line. It was removed a while ago from what I've heard.
