Jason Ottinger, John Blankenship, Edd Sorenson and Jeff Bauer attempted to continue replacing the nylon line upstream with kermantle. Unfortunately the cardboard at the edges of the spool of kermantle (see pix below) caused the spool to jam and prevent deploying of the line. We did manage to at least place PVC stakes in the cavern zone and lay the line above the silt.
The basin and cavern zone continue to enjoy excellent visibility, despite the recent spring rains. The cave itself, however, had a milky content that reduced the visibility.
