Dive Report ABWA 1-16-2010

[CaveMD]

visibility is 30ft or so in some places and around the school bus was upwards of 50ft

Rita and I were the only two people there we had the whole quarry to our selves for both dives.

Rita dove dry and i dove in 7mm w/ hood and gloves and was quite comfortable(not warm by any stretch of the imagination either though )

Thanks for the info. My 7mm semi-dry makes me uncomfortable no matter the water temps. I did not realize they were reopened from the winter break yet.

They never close during the winter except when the air temp is below freezing b/c of pipes. It does have the appearance of being closed though since it's usually pretty much empty this time of year(which means for people like me i have it all to myself )


edit: I forgot, they also close the week of christmas and new years except for weekends
