Hi Tim, you can't send a photo or two to verify it. That UFO list must be of local provenance. I can't find it in the "Search" option. I've yet to see the Guide Falls area. It sounds fantastic that there are still falls to be found and landscape that hides them, so close to the coast.

Thanks for that; all excellent shots. I had a look at my Inglis 1/100k when I got home. I've only ever driven along the coast and never realised how deep the Cam and Emu valleys become, so quickly from the coast. Someone could spend a lifetime exploring the area and never find all the falls. ( Whisky Road sounds interesting; memories of The Big Rock Candy Mountains.)

Thanks Tim, I have added Owen Brook and the unnamed falls to the main list and deleted Fosters falls from the second list.

Cheers,
