UPPER BOWENS CREEK

Upper Bowens Creek is a walk-through creek with some canyon sections and some swims.

However a surprise awaited us early on: one of the climb-down relied on a log which has now disappeared. It was not safe to use a handline so we resorted to abseiling the drop. Needless to say this took time… There is a way around but it was too late to try it…

We still enjoyed ourselves but had to exit early up a spur which delivered us back to the fire trail.
