Rattlesnake Lake Trip Planning

Maverick · Post by **Maverick** » Wed May 03, 2006 9:20 am

So we have Jims Ribs on the smoker, And a whole bunch of enthusiasm, now we need a dive plan.

A roster for starters is a good plan
-BJ/(Maverick)
-Calvin
-Jim Hike
-Jim Hall
-Diver Down-?
-Sparky-James

This is a start. Is every body here Nitrox Certified? I am currently not but will be completing the class by may 25th.

Since it will be an Altitude dive we need to plan it carfully and make sure every one understands that it is more dangerous and there is a greater chance of the Bends if you ascend to quickly.

So Gas is the big worry enough for all the extra saftey stops. At least we have one thing working for us, the lake is not to deep.

Dave, are you coming? I got my manifold last night so most likely Dave and I will be making this a 2 1/2 hour excursion through the fine city of rattlesnake lake (ok, I know it won't be that long since diverdown mentioned that it's pretty chilly).

And yes, I am nitrox ready.
