    Today we went back to Peacock, Peanut Tunnel just to get a little more comfortable with cave diving. We are allowed to use one third of 2 thirds of gas for penetration at Cave 1 level and main line only. We made it to 1600ft penetration and a 95 minute dive. Here are some photos from today....












    Who would have thought Kelly could do this?????

    Those are nice pictures, but where are Warren's?

    Didn't Mark beat you up in Ginnie? That's a rite of passage!

    Yay! Congrats to both of you!

    I'm still in the NO THANKS! phase, but doesn't mean I still can't cheer you on when I see those tight tunnels :-O. Have heard great things about Mark as a teacher.

    There's something just WRONG about someone turning out such fantastic photos two days after they finish their cave class . . . just wrong, I tell you!

    Congrats and welcome to the madness. Those are awesome pictures! And so detailed that I could tell exactly where you were in most of them. I can't wait to get back down for some more cave diving.
    While that may work fine in practice, it will never work in theory.

    Dove Telford Cave today, it requires a swim up river to get to the entrance to the cave. I don't think this cave is dove as much, darker and much more silt.
    We were just about to drift back down the river after the dive when someone pointed out a GATOR in the river. You've never seen 3 people in 130's get out of the water faster....
    Some photos from today
