Absolutely beautiful! What a glorious venture. Dove here July 25, 2016. I recommend getting to the site no later than 10 to be out of the water by 12:30 p.m., so that when local swimmers arrive, you are good to go.

Big Sandy, at around 1200 feet penetration, is easily recognizable as it is a big sand mound situated at the T.

Lots of old artifacts on the debris cones. Lots of tight spaces and restrictions that made the dive all that more enjoyable.
