LINE REPLACEMENT


November 2019 — Members of the CREER Line Committee removed the gold kermantle line between Cenote Dos Palmas and Cenote Nicte Ha, replacing it with #24 braided white line, in accordance with the guidelines agreed on in the September 2019 vote.  The main cave line was kept in approximately the same location, with no significant routing changes.

Red, damaged arrows were replaced with fresh white arrows reading “Dos Palmas Mainline” and two jump lines which were closer than 2 meters from the mainline were cut back to reduce the chance of divers making an accidental visual jump.  All arrow locations and directionality remain unchanged.

The goldine removed from the cave will be stored by the line committee, for cavern line repairs and replacements.

Cenote Dos Palmas remains open to cave divers, and is an excellent access point for downstream Dos Ojos dives.
