    Default Found at Jug Hole today 1/26/11

    Best cave treasure ever--but if this is yours, I bet you are missing it!

    Photographic equipment found today beyond the bedding plane restriction in Jug Hole.
    Please describe what you are missing, and if it's a match, you will be a happy camper!

    You were the first person I thought of when I read this thread. I guess I should have paid more attention to your equipment

    On a serious note, if you do not need it immediately and Corax is in the PSSP area this weekend, I can deliver it to you in Coz.

    We found it in the big room just past the bedding plane restriction floating on the roof back in that incut top part.
    We spent about an hour forty in jug just checking out every nook and crany...we both just love it in there.
    Happy picture taking!

    Yep, what he said We had a great dive there, as always, and I'm glad we could help reunite you with your tools! Not heading to PSSP soon, but we'll work something out when you emerge from the snow.

    That'd be super. Hey I just had an 11-1/2 hour commute home tonight due to the snowstorm. I'm going to crawl in bed and die for a while.

    Ok, I got about 4 hours of sleep now after my 11-1/2 commute from hell. I'm vaguely alive now.

    So I bought this plastic domeport to fit on my P&S housing. I wanted to try it out, but thought not-on-this-dive. But Forrest convinced me to take it in to Jug on the first photo dive of the trip. There wasn't a good way to attach a lanyard/clip to it. I was having trouble with it. It had super short bungees to hold it on the housing. It wasn't taking good pictures. It wasn't seated properly. At the second (I think it was the Diamond Sands) restriction, I was sort of wedged in, trying to take Forrest's picture in the tight spot. I took off the domeport cuz it wasn't working properly. I tried hooking one of the mini bungees over my pinky while I kept snapping. Before too long, I realized it was GONE. With the current in there, I have no idea where it is. Probably the Atlantic by now--or the Gulf--don't know my geography well enough.

    At the end of the dive, Forrest and I scoured the basin, checking the fence that blocks the downstream flow. Nothing. Forrest tried to convince me to post up, but I figured A) it was hopeless, and B) if it were found, the person would post and I wouldn't have to admit being a dufus for no reason.

    THANKS!

    Are you still in the Jughole area? If so, I may be able to pick up SG equipment. We will also be at Madison and LR this weekend. Give me a shout at 229-873-0889 if you think it may work. If you are on the road to Texas, I better pass.

    Safe diving,

    Sandy Robinson
