    Mine LaMotte Report

    You will be fine. All of this will be in shallow water. Safty is the most important thing, especially when I'm involved, since I work in the industry. You will be teamed up with an advanced diver for your own safty regardless. So come on down get wet and have some fun. Ask Fleep, we always try...

    Great. The dept. of Conservation can be a little slow sometimes. Plus, it always helps to know how to talk to them. Stay on top of them. Perserverence almost always prevails.

    This place was already a dive spot. What we are doing is cleaning it up to make it a more diver friendly place. Similiar to Mermet springs. Before Glen and his crew began cleaning it up it was very much the same as here. This place is in our back door and since it is open to divers than it...

    We can not be sure of that. No one can the whole place is full of loose scale. It just goes with the territory. One thing is for sure the collapse was several yrs ago and no more has come down since.
