Hi and welcome to my humble "Peter Puddles' Reports" site!
This is a "feel-free-to-help-yourself" site containing a variety of research reports and books involving cave diving and related projects with which I was closely involved or coordinated over the years (in fact most are my own personal reports; saves having to ask others for permission to publish!). I've never wanted to produce this material for profit so you are very welcome to download and print anything herein (but obviously not on-sell for profit) at your leisure! So go to it! Please also see the second part of this page at http://sites.google.com/site/cdiverepts2/ where additional files can be found (since I used up all the allocated space in this version).
I really want to mention here also that the site's existence (and the documents attached herein) only became possible as a result of the fantastic help and generosity of fellow cave divers Ken Smith and Dean Laffan, who provided me with both the opportunity and tools to finally be able to convert some of these research and mapping reports into a form which would enable others to gain access to this information ... information which itself was only obtained through the accumulated experience of the many cavers and cave divers who have assisted me and with whom I have shared many wonderful experiences over the past 30-odd years. Some of the attached reports are basic scans of old documents which were typed up using good old-fashioned cotton-ribbon typewriters and the like, but I am slowly updating/retyping/digitising them and will replace the initial versions as opportunities permit.
I hope you find the attached material of some interest and I welcome any feedback, including constructive criticism! Please email me at ppuddles@hotmail.com as I do not check my Gmail address very often.
Safe and happy paddling,
Peter Puddles in Sunny South Australia! ;@P
