What happens after Open Water?

We moved to the North side of Pearl Lake today, after silting (and puking see yesterday’s comments) up the east side it might

be better to give that side a day or so to settle out and detox.

Kevin and I made the students drill and drill the Navigation patterns until, . . . well, . . .

until they finally got it right.

There was some frustration, the heat, the sun and the silt were unrelenting.

Zero viz navigation isn’t easy.  But the STARS Students toughed it out, almost like it was a black op.

Four dives and many, many, many, many (did I say many?) ups and downs later, they were all done.

No rest for the weary.

Wait until you see what we’ve got in store for you tomorrow!

Search and Recovery, stay tuned!
