MikeFerrara:My wife and I dived a little cave in Kentucky where our max depth was about 9 ft. Of course we had to swim our gear accross a lake and use ropes to get it up a mountain to get to the cave entrance. The entrance was a knee deep mud puddle at the bottom of a rock face. You slipped into your gear, slid down into the mud and crawled under the rock to get in. the vis wasn't too bad once we were in and there were tons of creyfish. Very silty though. Just touching a rock to tie off a line blew things out pretty good. We went to where the existing line goes through a restriction, which wasn't very far, and turned. It wasn't much of a dive but was definately an experience.
The cave I am speaking of is almost Florida like access. Park the car next to the beach, float down the resurgence and dive. Its only missing a picknick table (its under a tarp because the land owner hasn't been up in a few months) and tubers. There is a good mix of cave low silt big tunnel stuff with 10 feet of vis and zero vis sidemount holes. 30k feet mapped/lined passage, great place.
Gota be my favourite local dive site and the deepest it goes is 32 feet. Latest trip report can be found at http://scubajim.livejournal.com/1628.html?view=2908.
