Woman drowns in Hudson sinkhole

This is an article that does not involve a diver but rather an individual who after drinking decided to go for a swim where they shouldn't have.

Just so everyone reads this and doesn't click the link...this was **NOT** a diving related death, nor does it have anything to do with cave diving other than being on nss-cds owned property, a common cave diving location.

I have never been there, but is it possible she jumped in and hit her head? Maybe it knocked her out and she drowned.?

and by people clicking the link and reading the article they would be able to figure out she was not diving.

So many of these types of sites are still used by local people as party, swimming and dumping places.

It's also not what I would consider a "common cave diving location".

Quite possible. It's a relatively small pool, lined with limestone, which juts out underwater in places. It's a very beautiful place, even if not diving.

I've been following this on CDF also. No matter what people say , it is VERY , VERY SAD that someone died for whatever reason. (sigh)

I never dove Wayne's World (would like to someday) but I have seen the sinkhole and I could see where SOMEONE could have hit something with their head etc. Nassy.

Most NSS-CDS properties have a gate and you need a key or the lock combination to get in. I did dive Wayne’s World many times years ago (Paul did own it at the time), and I believe it did have a gate. Is the site now open to everybody?

 

[deepdiver4]

no you need to be a member sign a waver at hudson grotto get the gate code then your set but the locals can walk right in some r ok but outhers are a real asses
