ice-a-paloosa!
By request we need to work out a date for this. I should be free any weekend in Feb.

Propose Tonka wrecks:
Need sites with confirmed high quality gps numbers.

Date(s):
I assume we want at least 3 sites, we need the guys with ropes and shelters to agree on a common date.

Comments:
The wrecks aren't exactly easy diving for new ice divers or those with minimum threshold skills (aka 20 dives). They present a lot of rope management issues and buddy skills as well as depth. A runaway from 60 feet could be fatal if you hit the ice with your head (case: diver fatally impacted an oil rig pipe on uncontrolled assent). So we ether need to work out how to make this safe, set a skill level or move to a safer site for all skill levels.

Lastly, this is not a sponsored event. We'll accept tips to defray the cost of propane but it's free to dive.

If you're a lawyer and you want to provide pro bono advice that will help us organizers, I'll take it via PM.

Changes? Idea?
Ask your doctor if getting off your ass is right for you.
