Yes.

There are lines from the entrance to both of the 25 ft platforms and from each of those to the 50 ft. From the 50 ft there is a rope to the 90.

Each of the 25 ft platforms also has a rope of to an attraction.
And if you stick your dive light in santa it lights up the platform nice

we ran another line today from the 50 ft platform to the flowerpot west of the motorcycle. 215 ft of line.
we put 2 brackets on the west platform, to put a leg back on and straighten another leg. still needs brackets on the other legs. I've got the brackets and hope to put them on next weekend.
the east platform is a mess needs to be lifted and legs reattached. more details on the thread 'mount storm repairs.

We found the flower pot today. Mike and Zee were getting out as we were getting ready to get in and there were three other people there. So five of us had the whole place to ourselves.

The guide line to the north platform was broken so we spliced it back together. 91*F on the surface and 88*F at 56'. Vis 6'-8'. Dove in my skin and Kokomo went in her shorts and tee shirt.

The repairs to the North platform look good and the East platform...........well it is usable.

Anyone know where the Indian Head went to? It use to be on the way to the 50' plsatform from the East platform in about 37'-40'. We looked hard for it today. It has been a long time since we have seen it around.

Spotted a Freshwater Jelly near the flower pot, in about 37' of water.

And on the way to the lake a momma bear and her three cubs crossed the road in front of us.

I'm glad you found the flowerpot. it's been there for a while. I don't know who placed it.


Thanks for fixing that line I realized it was loose on our 2nd dive and did not have any way to fix it.



Thanks for noticing the repairs on the north platform. I had a dilly of a time trying to turn the dumb screwdriver...it kept turning me. I think that my hands absorbed most of mount storm and so i couldn't get a good grip on the screwdriver.

anyone diving there soon???? please take a phillips head screwdriver and tighten the screw on the middle post on the shore side of the north platform. it still sticks out about 1 inch.

Hubby was not able to dive on sat, so I rented a boy scout and put him to work. He is one of the kids we took to Florida Sea Base last year. good kid strong hands.



I havent seen the indian head is quite some time. It may be deep in the muck with GI Joe.




OK OK tell me about the jellyfish!!!! I have never seen them there how big are they what do they look like????? I want to see one!
