Ginnie Spring (Ginnie Ballroom)
Cavern only (cave gated): Ginnie Springs operator rule [1] (Certified divers of all levels may carry lights; the cave beyond is closed by a grate.). Bu kategoriler, adı geçen sertifikasyon sisteminin kendi sınıflandırmasıdır; bir noktanın gerektirdiği eğitimi tanımlarlar.
The main spring at Ginnie Springs: a broad, shallow basin leading to a large cavern room (the Ballroom) about 15 metres deep, with a welded grate at the back that keeps divers out of the cave beyond.
Ginnie Spring is a bowl-shaped basin more than 30 metres across and about 4.5 metres deep, connected by a short run to the Santa Fe River. From the basin, divers drop into the Ballroom, an amphitheatre-sized cavern room that reaches about 15 metres at its very back.
A large welded grate at the back of the Ballroom blocks entry to the silty, maze-like cave system that lies beyond, so this is a cavern dive only. A heavy guideline runs from the back of the room to the entrance to show the way out (a guideline is a fixed line that divers follow in an overhead environment). Ginnie Springs allows certified divers of all experience levels to carry lights here, unlike at the Devil's springs.
Ortam
Clear spring water flowing through a large cavern room; about 35 million gallons a day pass through the opening near the grate, according to the park.
Koşullar
DAN reports the cavern at 20 to 50 feet (6 to 15 m), and notes the park is crowded on weekends from Memorial Day to Labor Day. Flow through the grate area is strong.
