    Default Cave diving outside Flroida

    I have dived caves in 12 different states and 10 countries. I just found about this spring today. No, I haven't dived it... yet

    Is there drivable cave? I saw mention of bubbling sand, nothing about a potential entrance

    I've sampled this spring when I worked at Michigan Tech. There is no cave, but it is a very pretty spring.

    Too bad. With that much outflow, I am surprised there isn't an entrance.

    It does show there is potential for cave dives outside of Florida

    The spring vent is covered in sand, so there are amazing sand boils. Just not any enterable caves.
