Notes:
Met up with Stacey at Cave Excursions East to get fills and then headed off to Ginnie to do a quick dive before the super bowl. Our original plan was to hit mainland, but another team was already in there, so we cut it back a bit and just went to Sweet Surprise. According to Forrest Wilson here, Sweet Surprise got it’s name because Dale Sweet discovered it, even after it had been missed by other explorers.
To get there, simply scooter in on a stage until about p2100 and then look for a tunnel that looks like it “goes”. The jump line is cut pretty far back here. We made it back to the first T, which is the turtle tunnel and takes you to Mainland. Due to recent rains and flooding, viability was poor for the Devils system.
