Hidden Paradise used to be nice.... 10 years ago. Over the last few years, the quarry has not been treated and the vis has been terrible. I can't remember exactly how deep it is at the deepest, but I think it's around 35 feet in the deep hole/pit. The last few visits we actually just followed the wall around cause the vis was so bad. Another note... getting from the car to the entry points at HP can be rough... steep hills on one side, and a steep LONG stairway on the other side of the quarry. If you use the ramp that decends into the water, be careful... it's very slick. When it comes to changing clothes, at HP there is a dressing room, but it's at the office... most people do the "behind the towel" changing trick at the quarryside. Price-wise... HP is much cheaper. I think it's $8 or $10... where BS is $20. I'd rather spend the $20 and have a "changing area" and decent vis, and decent stuff to look at. The major downfall at BS is that there is no running water... so no flush toilets.
Blue Springs is FAR nicer, yet, still not a gem to "look at" topside! LOL
OH... and thanks for the current temps! Looks like I'll be waiting a bit longer to get in the water! LOL
