Tranquility 17 October 2025 After quite a disorganised start of the day, Adam and I set out on a fire trail and missed a turn because we were talking… We decided to bushbash and that did not work well either! We returned to the fire trail and continued until we could see the creek of interest… We traversed a small hanging swamp and followed the messy creek line until we could find an in! We stepped into a secluded rainforest […]
Scrubby, Slippery, Nightmarish! 28 April 2025 The gully looked promising on paper… but we got into snags straight away! The proposed entry was possible without a nuisance abseil and getting wet. So we followed the cliffline but could not find anything until the end of the creek… The descent was slippery and steep: we snugged against the cliff and eventually came level with a small creek.

In any case it was the right place to be on a hot sunny day!
A Nice Creek 30 December 2023 It was a grey day perfect for photography! Six brave souls set out along the bed of a creek. I dutifully gave a blood offering to the canyoning gods: I don’t think I can do a canyon without falling at least once!Everything was slippery: the leaves, the ground, the rocks… but it was nice being there. I had walked there before and had been stopped by a drop! So I was looking forward to […]
