Hi,

First I would like to thank all the people which did send in some useful =
replies.

I have thought about it a while. My plan would be to go for GUE CAVE =
DIVER Level1. This would be possible in one week time with (I hope) some =
time left for extra practising.=20

One question remains however: assume I get certified GUE CAVE DIVER =
Level1: what kind of dives and under what circumstances will they be =
allowed ? (I did not find this mentioned anywhere on the GUE website). =
The GUE website mentions 600' penetrations (also max narcotic depth of =
130'), so would this be the limit for the certification ? Can I join =
cave trips like the ones that Connie is organizing for instance in =
Yucatan ? (or is this for experienced cavers "pro's" only?). I ask this =
because conditions here at home are nearly impossible, so I would have =
to practise abroad. Any additional information about practising fields =
(caves) matching the GUE CAVE DIVER certification level would be =
appreciated.
