Newnes Canyoning

Smiffy has some pics as well

From Newnes we climb up to a cliff line and head up to our first canyon. This section is in the lower cliffline.

Soon we reach the slot in the upper cliffline

We crossed the tops and dropped down into another creek. We spotted a lyrebird, one of a few we saw that day

Smiffy bridging to avoid wet feet

We tried to traverse under the cliffs but got caught too high. Still, we got great views of Mt Canobla and Mt Gundangaroo

We headed up another creek. It had some sections of canyon in its headwaters
