20 Mar 1988 | Lake Jindabyne | The flooded town of Jindabyne | Snowy Mountains | Australia | 14 | 35 | 35 | Iain Hosking, Cathy Humphries | While others accepted a penalty due to the previous night's drinking (Arriving late means you're an 'F' diver; drinking late means you're a 'B' diver...) we adopted a simpler approach by using RNPL tables as usual. This dive was much better than the previous day's. We saw more: the foundations of a house, with fence, doorway, gate and windows; a veritable forest of trees below the thermocline (visible as a light line in the water); bottles; a cow bone; freshwater sponges and waterweed. After the dive we headed west through Kosciusko National Park to Albury. A good weekend. | 24lbs lead, hired BCD. |
