We went in off the Mt Hay Rd. It did not take us long to get to the
cliffs above the creek

Above - Madlen in the canyon - you can see a hole in the foreground -
she did not fall into that one - but she did fall into a closer one
that you cannot see. Luckily she was OK

This visit to the canyon we exited via Alpheus Canyon. This involved
some rock climbing - and it was an interesting route out. Thanks to our
guide Nic who showed us the way and led all the climbing.
