.
GUE’s Cave Diver Level 1 course is designed to prepare divers for the rigors of the underwater cave environment and to establish an appreciation of its subtle dangers. Among its other outcomes: introduce divers to the principles of cave diving and the skills and knowledge required for limited penetration into underwater caves; increase environmental awareness; cultivate proficiency in dive planning; cultivate teamwork; promote an understanding of cave environments; teach stress management, navigation, conservation, standard and emergency procedures, and cave diving techniques; and instill an appreciation of the hazards of cave diving.
A GUE Cave 1 diver will be able to plan and execute dives within the following limitations:
No passages may be used in which divers are forced to travel single file for a prolonged distance (i.e., approximately 10 ft/3 m).
No complex navigation (jumps, traverses, circuits)
Navigation beyond one permanent intersection (also known as a “T” or “Y”) and an unlimited number of temporary intersections is permitted. Permanent intersections are identified by the lack of a visible jump spool; temporary intersections provide visual access to a diver’s jump spool.
Trainees may navigate gaps
All dives must be within minimum decompression limits (MDLs), i.e., no required stops.
No DPV diving
No exploration
No stage cylinders
.
PREREQUISITES
Be a certified GUE Fundamentals diver with a Technical pass.
Have completed at least 100 non-training dives beyond autonomous scuba diver certification.
