I've been wanting to go there... this sounds like a good opportunity. I would say to count me in for two. I'll bring paper products to keep the weight in the car down.

consider yourself counted.

I've never been there. I know its a cavern. Do you have to be cavern cert?

 

[Fox-Cousteau]

Cavern Cert. not required Devil's Den is a most unique dive site. it is an under ground lake with some underwater overhead environment. I'll be surprised if you don't like it.

Some people call it "underwater rock climbing"

Devil's Den sounds great... I am one of the 2 counted for Siikik... do you have many going yet?

numbers are building, I've got about 8 tentative and an additional 10 who are interested but haven't committed one way or another. I think we have our 6.

 

[BekaLynn]

Well you can add one more interested. I have a friend who is thinking of joining in. I have never been to devil's den, but the pictures make it look small... how many divers can comfortably dive at the same time?

 

[Fox-Cousteau]

Easily 50 or more divers. the water surface area is the smallest part of the dive. as you descend it opens up much like an upside down mushroom. There are many "swim throughs" and some fish.

You will need at least one light.

Haven't seen much interest in the thread... time to revive it!
