Crosby Dive - June 8th

[DanL]

Sites are natural. The Louise mine has a toilet seat over a hole in the ground - totally open, but someone usually hangs a groundcloth if necessary.<br>Bring plenty of water/drinks, snacks, utensils, coffee and pot, cooler, towels, warm clothes and hat and gloves, grill, lantern/flashlight, TP, DEET to repel ticks, saw for firewood, folding chair, etc etc.  It's COLD up there at night.<br>If you're diving a wetsuit, get some polarfleece pants and top. Just slip em on over wetsuit after dive to stay warm until next dive.  Works better than stripping, getting cold and then getting back in the wet/cold suit later.<br>Can eat in Crosby, Ironton or Brainerd - all within 15 minutes.<br>MSD in Brainerd is full service shop - can get air, nitrox, repairs, rental - everything you might need for diving.<br>Anyone O2/Rescue certified?  Would be nice to have O2/first aid if anyone available. <br>Note that this Sat, MSD has a sponsored dive at Gilligan's Plunge on the North Huntington Pit.  Want to dive it?  I can call em and let em know were coming.  Bill will set some tanks aside if we need em.  Upside is they know the pits well, downside is that there may be a lot of divers at that location.<br>I ahve no preferences, but Louise is easy access, has camping space and is a good dive.
