Dive #515 - Madrona (Big Wall) - 19 October 2021

After hearing reports of octo-Buds out on the Big Wall, we got some Nitrox and headed out. We dropped down half way to the buoy, which was a mistake - we got horribly lost in the sand and ended up finding the wall at the tumbled-boulder section where we normally turn around. But with Nitrox, we carried on to the end of the wall, where the masses of feather stars are. We turned around and headed back. Found a bunch of big GPOs, a wolf eel pair, and a juvenile wolf eel. Lots of Pacific Staghorn Sculpins out tonight, and a few Red Irish Lords. Two huge armed hermit crabs - one in a moonsnail shell!
