Snowmen & Diving

[Spectre]

I decided to make sure all my warm water diving as of late didn't break me. First cold water dive since early August.

I didn't end up taking any UW photos, as it was pretty dark, and I didn't want to fool with the camera with my finger stumps:

Good stuff Jeff. Just as soon as we can get through the walls of snow we're diving Tahoe again...I heard they have 8' of snow up there.

...it was pretty dark..

I'd venture to say it was darn close to a night dive. Almost 0 ambient light below 100 ft. Reading gauges required use of a light. However, visibility was fairly good. Now if I can just learn how to distinguish the bow (pointy end) from the stern (rounded end)....

And...for the record, my hat is still *not* pink....

Rec Trimix == 30/30
tech1 == 21/35

That should probably solve your issues

It was dark and I didn't have the flash on.

Are you suggesting that I was narced at 115 feet in 39 degree water with no ambient light!? Blasphemy.

Well that would just be silly now wouldn't it. The tech1 mix has more nitrogen. Actually with an almost insignificant END difference, and END's for either mix being less than 3ata, it really doesn't suggest anything.

The tech1 mix has more nitrogen.

21/35 = 44% nitrogen
EAN28 = 72% nitrogen
44<72
