Dangar's Falls in flood

 I took a trip out to our gorge country today to see how all our recent rain has affected the river system and our gorgeous waterfalls. In particular, I headed to Dangar's Falls, which tumble vertically into a deep gorge and I was stunned by what I saw.

Have a look at these pictures. Here's the fast flowing water taken from an iron bridge over the creek near the car park. The latter was jammed with cars as people had headed like me to the spectacular falls 


This is the stream running hard over the rocky landscape above the falls.


And here's a picture looking the rapid stream flow heading down to the top of the falls.


This shows the torrent of water heading over the top of the falls - about the most water I have ever seen. There's a little lake at the bottom, which is better shown in the following picture.



The river then rushes in zig-zag fashion through the bottom of the gorge.



I have a video of the falls and friends and families are welcome to request it separately.
