Pendragon 1 #1 November 25, 2007 I'm heading over to Florida in a couple of weeks: anyone know the current state of the pond in Lake Wales? I've heard conflicting information; one that it's half drained and the other that it's perfectly fine! How's the Z-Hills pond too? ...and am I blissfully unaware of any other decent ones?-- BASE #1182 Muff #3573 PFI #52; UK WSI #13 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
towerrat 0 #2 November 26, 2007 I'm pretty sure the lake wales pond is dead. Z-Hills has a nice pond but you need to get a low pass to swoop it. It's also fed directly from a well so the water isn't stagnant.Play stupid games, win stupid prizes! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eUrNiCc 0 #3 November 28, 2007 I was in Lake Wales last week & the pond is definitely low. I swooped it a few times, but had to pop up a bit to miss the bank. By the end of the weekend the water had gone down noticeably and there were a few islands starting to form. I'm sure it will get back up to snuff soon as the season is picking up.Egad, A BASE life defiles a bad age. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkymonkeyONE 3 #4 November 30, 2007 Z-hills pond got a new, very-deep well last year and is always full to the top. I can't say what's going on elsewhere. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pendragon 1 #5 December 2, 2007 Well, I'll see you next Saturday (or maybe really late Friday night) then! Might even be up for a wingsuit jump too. -- BASE #1182 Muff #3573 PFI #52; UK WSI #13 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
