    Default WKPP field update

    Hi all. just a quick update about what's been going on for the past couple of weeks. 6000' added from Turner and innisfree.
    Field Update - Turner Sink. WKPP scores another big discovery with the connection of the upstream deep section discovered last week and Darkwater Sink. This establishes a parallel western tunnel system from Innisfree Sink to Darkwater. Steve Cox and Mark Garland pushed from the deep section while AJ Gonzales, Fraser Purdon, and Casey McKinlay connected from the Darkwater side. Leveraging OC and RB80 scr plus Suex dpvs, the connection is confirmed. So far 6,000ft added and 4,000ft resurveyed.
    if you're interested in getting involved please let AJ or myself know. lots more work to be done.
    more info and updates can be found on the wkpp facebook page

    Very cool. Any chance a room or passage will be named in honor of Jim Miller who lost his life there? Good friend, with a strong passion for the efforts of the WKPP.
