Today (9-17-10), Denisegg, GlenFWB, and I met at Morrison Springs for a couple dives. Today was Glen’s first time back diving after a little hiatus and I was glad to see him back in the water again. The water levels at Morrison were the lowest I think I have ever seen. The platform was at 10 ffw and the log was at 20 ffw on one side and 18 ffw on the other. We were the first ones there and the water was as clear as clear gets. Our first dive was really just a shake-out dive to let Denise and Glen get reacquainted with their sidemount gear. I ran a reel into the side cavern and checked things out a bit and then putzed around in the basin for a dive lasting 45 minutes. We then got out and enjoyed our hour surface interval enjoying the beautiful weather and making our plans for dive number two. Once our hour passed, we geared back up and this time made a B-line for the main cavern. This was my first time in the main cavern and I was really impressed. It was a big room and it was great to have three of us in there with canister lights so it was really lit up. I explored around until I hit 1/6ths and then we made a slow ascent back up. From there we went into the side cavern in the lower section and came back out in the upper section. From there we made our way to our agreed upon long safety stop and then surfaced with a dive lasting 57 minutes with a max depth of 83 ffw. From there we made a B-line to Sally’s for chopped steak and sour cream and chives fries :thumbs_up:. It was great to meet up with Denise and Glen and get in some fun dives and finally get into the main cavern at Morrison Springs :dance3:.
Glen took some pics so hopefully he will post some here.
