actually, the drysuit isn't a bad thing to have out there.Will be just west of Topeka near Junction City. Looking foreward to the move out there. I am not there yet, getting my H2O fix before heading out there. Looking foreward to meeting some of you out there sometime.
you will be about 5 hour drive from Bonne Terre mines. 57 degree water
prolly about 3 hours from Joplin, MS and the quarry there. 45 degree water
and there are several other quarries, lakes, rivers and caves in the area, and all with some fairly cold water.
