Re:Red Granite Quarry
There's also an underwater forrest on the back side of the quarry. We used to drive around to the back and enter there. I am not sure if you can still get back there or not. IT isn't as big as the ones in Wazze and it was about 70' down if memory serves me right.
THe deepest I have ever found is 120', and it was a black ooze that could such up all 100 watts of the cave light I was using at the time. There is a hole in ther ethat goes much deeper (168'-238' are the numbers that I have heard of), but I have never been able to locate it. I BELIEVE, but am not positive, that it is in the back left-hand side of the quarry where the boulders make up the wall. I did find a bicycle one time while teaching a deep diving class there one time- at 110'. Best vis I ever had there was in Spring a week after the ice went out- we could see our bubbles break the surface from 88' down. A few months later I could barely see 5'. :-[ I thought that Dr. Dick Boyd, who works at Global, had a map of the quarry form when it was still dry. I thought that he was trying to put a book together about it, and other Wisconsin dive sites, about 10 years ago. Jon |
