Solo Dive, This dive was actually at Site: N. There were supposed to be at least 2 other divers but they did not rsvp out so I ended up waiting until about 9 AM. I went solo. I 1st went down one of the routes a little farther to the right side instead of the steeper but shorter trails down on the left. It starts right after the very 1st segment. Entry was easy next to the brown rock. High Tide with some surf and waves but not many rocks at the entry point. Targeted 30 degrees to get to the arch and then look for the abandoned cage. I ended up too short and around the point a bit. Needed to go out another 100 feet. Maybe try again next week.
