The Twin Falls circuit was amazing.
Never seen so.much water and so many waterfalls.
It rained the whole time and everyone wad truly soaked. However everyone was thrilled to have experienced such awsome scenes. We had lunch and then decided to make our way home because it was still raining and some were getting chilled in their damp clothes.- Peter.

A cool morning to start the day which quickly warmed up turning to rain and strong gusts which would have brought down trees.
We all commented on the fire devestaion and the fact that the forest still had to grow back a substantial canopy. Toward the southern end of Daves Creek we walked through heavily burnt areas with black tree trunks and next to no undergrowth.
Tracks turned to mud as we walked back to Binna Burra.
We all had a great time and were glad o be out walking in the forest again - Colin

A hot, steamy day did not lessen enthusiasm for getting out into the forest and enjoying its delights.
Pamela Smith , Tony Milligan and I pushed up the very steep hill to the ridge above Paiges Pinnacle and then enjoyed the challenge of the razorback ridge to the Pinnacle.
Refreshments at Polly's was delightful.

Best views of the wetlands seen in years with lots of water, melaleucas looking spectacular, an abundance of waterbirds and wildlife and koalas just waking up to start foraging.
A great afternoon of easy walking in beautiful sunshine.
