the cavern looked fairly bare but i heard a water noise coming from a small hole in the left wall and climbed down for a look.
Following numerous twists and turns i eventually found a Waterfall !!
By then my headtorch batteries were dying so i had to head back to the surface getting lost a few times in the failing light.
i made my way back then drove to Gordon and camped beside the water ... Best Day Ever!! :mrgreen:

20-2-23:
what a wet grey and miserable day made worse because i slept with the door open and it rained on the outer 1/4 of my mattress and bedding and now its soaked ... stayed in bed doing video and pics but i had to open the door to get enough signal for data to send it and had to do it in between rain patches

Image

Later on that night i managed to get a few Aurora Australis pics
