Went here to do my deep dive and night/low viz checkout dives. It’s an interesting place. This is the first time I’ve experienced thermoclines, with temps jumping from ~80f to an indicated 67f in just a few feet. Not a whole lot to see, but a great place to train. Hit 107f almost touching bottom, where it requires care not to stir up the large amount of sedimentation. Being surrounded by complete darkness but looking up and seeing the brown sun is surreal.
