Went to the fall at the landslide and 3 falls past there, then up to a small cave. Took about 4 and a half hours return, including an enjoyable swim and a tea break. This is a tough, gruelling walk because of all the rock hopping. Some of the climbs up the falls are a little dangerous.

A few who missed out on this hike 8 days ago asked if I could take them there. So back for a repeat, going to the same point.

Took a group of 22 up to the two swimming holes near the landslide.

Some of the group went further up the creek from the main swimming holes and following the ridge on the southern side back to the day use area.
