Coorongooba Canyoning

Our cosy little campsite on the banks of the creek

The next morning, looking down the first drop in the fourth constriction

Rich climbing out a steep pass (he had already done the hard yards to get the rope up for the rest of us)

Rachel at the start of another squeezy canyon

Rachel enjoying some more bridging (that's foamy water below, not sand!)

... and more bridging ...

James on the other side of the manoeuvre

Oh look, some more bridging from Rachel!

Is there nothing but bridging in this canyon??

I find a slightly easier pass than Rich's so we use it to get out at the end

James on the first abseil

Rachel at the bottom of the abseil

Impressive coachwood chamber

Rachel abseiling, I climbed down tree roots on the right (though one broke as I stepped on it!)

James on an awkward and unpleasant squeeze

Rachel at the top of the final drop. It looks like an abseil, but James, Rich and I climb down a bit and jump.

However...

...Rachel is not keen on jumping...

...and shows off her moves!

Rich jumps!

And again!

In our next canyon, James and Rachel give it the thumbs up!
