Did any of you guys get a chance to take any photos on your almost trips to Meander Falls? I'd be interested to see them with a decent amount of water coming down instead of the trickle that I've found both times I've been

Only flew back to Sydney yesterday so still going through photos. Unfortunately this looks like the best I can do of the actual falls (even after post processing). Even at this distance there was a lot of water coming down and the sound was very loud:

Here is why we didn't get any closer:

Far out. Looks a lot different from when I last did the walk back in April.

We actually went for a drive up to the carpark when they had the last Meander floods and there was a couple of walkers who had just returned from a walk to the wooden bridge on the track where they couldn't get any further past. There was also some dodgy looking guy in the carpark who didn't seem to have a car of his own up there. Glad I came back to the car when we did I think :?
