As long at it's ideas. I've considered, how do you say where you are? As can be seen in Terry's 52 second cut if you had a location you could do better to open a hole for them and or enter rescue divers directly to the site. Even as easy as auger a hole and hand them a long hose. You can almost always reach up the hole, hand signal or pass a dive slate. (yes, provided your not trapped on the bottom)

What you need is a flag or something like what they use to mark NSP lines to push/drill though the ice.

I was thinking about this on an ice dive not as a rescue but if I find something that we want to recover or cut a hole over a specific place. It would be better to mark the spot then to compass course and rope length from the old hole  that is likely to be 150 feet away.
Ask your doctor if getting off your ass is right for you.

If you get a thing used for back country skiing called an avalanche responder.... put it in a small pelican case and then use that for the surface support to home in on you and cut the hole... id be willing to depend on that sinche they work through a few feet of snow... should work thrugh ice.

Should do but now that it's just one I don't need it. No reason to have a plaque of one. I'll just have a normal 1st Place made up.
They don't do this for cups.

I only said I'd do anchor count so that's one or I will get a plaque for each with the names and counts in order with the b/w graphic. Terry can work out the rest with you guys.
