I would never disagree with the Snorklemeister (and even though I am in
Georgia I have not made my required pilgrimage to the Conasauga) ... but I
do want to sing the praises of a trip to the Sipsey. It is a fantastic
environment for snorkling. And it is hard to beat observing "crowds" of
log perch turning over everythig in sight. And that is not to mention the
"herds" of stonerollers... and other species... All in all a near perfect
setting for snorkeling.
