The next video in the series is Cow Spring. Cow is black, black, black inside. We turned the dive about 1700 feet into the cave which was easier than it sounds because the flow was down a lot. The rope was basically not required.

Here is the video.

Thanks for sharing. Cow is one spring that I have no desire to attempt.
 
Nice video. Well done. THAT is a cave.

I won't be showing it to my GF though!

It grows on ya. It's one of our favorite caves.

It has one of the prettiest caverns around and the downstream line is not overly difficult.

Up stream is intimidating at first with the 2 restrictions to get in the cave, and the 2 farther in are also intimidating at first, but it's a great cave to get comfortable in in small steps.

Upstream Cow is also a cave that is best dove early on with another diver who is very familiar with it. In fact, I'd like to see that become a requirement - much like Friedman's Sink at Manatee.
 
I haven't been there in a real long time, looks a bit beat up these days :(

Great video though! Good lighting!
 
Thanks for posting. It's a beautiful cave. It looks like very close quarters in there though.
