Diving Piccaninnie Ponds, South Australia

This is one of my oldest cave diving videos. I put it together from footage I shot on my first trip up to Mount Gambier following my CDAA Cavern Sinkhole Course (which is now known as Basic Cave). I've added an introduction to it in which I discuss some of the more interesting features of the site. Some areas of this site are out of bounds unless you have obtained the appropriate permits and I have a real fascination with them.

These were explored and documented in depth by a team led by Richard Harris originally in 2008.

This is a link to his YouTube channel (which includes a video of the deep exploration of Piccanninnie Ponds):

However a better high definition version of this specific video can be found on Harris's Vimeo channel here. Here's a direct link to it:

Harris also wrote an article for Advanced Diver Magazine about the early stages of the exploration:

I also recommend checking out his YouTube Podcast Channel "The Real Risk" in which he interviews other people pushing their limits:

Piccaninnie Ponds is a fascinating freshwater dive site. Notwithstanding that this was one of my earliest cave diving videos, shot back in 2013 it still shows how spectacular this site is. I wanted to go back and put a video together that did it even more justice but that project is on my list of to do things.
