Entley Posted February 6, 2007 #1 Share Posted February 6, 2007 We'll be doing a cave tubing excursion in March. How cold is the water; do you need a thin wet suit? I'm from Montana and you wouldn't get in the water up here in March without an axe to break through the ice and then a dry suit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went last week- outside temp was about 90 and the water temp was about 72- actually quite comfortable and i am a big chicken! We are from Idaho so I know what you mean about water in March!

Also originally from Montana, so know what cold water is - although now living in New Orleans. Just got back from our cruise on Sunday. The water was a little brisk on entry, but after the initial little shock was very comfortable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nebr.cruiser Posted February 6, 2007 #4 Share Posted February 6, 2007 I hate cold water and was a little worried about this, but after the first shock--oooh--I was used to it in 30 seconds and never noticed it again throughout the trip. Like a previous poster, I'd say it was about 72 degrees. This was in December, 2006. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Sixth? Posted February 6, 2007 #5 Share Posted February 6, 2007 We went a couple of years ago, and did both caves in the rain, and by the end were getting a tad chilly. T-shirts for a little extra warmth may not be a bad idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
