Blue Mountains Canyoning

Looking down into the creek from pagodas on the ridge

The creek starts to look a bit canyon-y

Ledge walking

More canyon

Rachel balancing through a deep pool

Deep wade, pretty much the deepest we got til the exit

Lunch at what I though was going to be the exit, but was just the start of another canyon!

The exit canyon was full of short waterfalls like this one

A short swim leads to a slippery ramp

This one required some mutual assistance

Another pool and slippery dip

Another tricky climb up, mainly due to the detachable footholds

One last pool

Cliffs of banksia, hakea and tea-tree on our ill-advised exit
