    It was still a little bit wet from cyclone Alfred but overall a very good hike

    Cascade Falls Loop via The Cascades Trail Walking Track and Ridge Trail
    This is one of my favourite walks in SE Qld. It criss crosses the creek all the way up the mountain then down the old fire trail. Alternatively, and better, add the the Ridge track to the walk - not much longer.

    Stairway falls via bull ant spur (19/12/2022, 09:24:39)
    A good walk to fountain falls. Bull ant spur is easy enough to navigate (just stay on the top of the spur). Head downstream from blue pool. The track starts on the right of the creek (heading downstream) but is quite overgrown. If you lose the track just follow the creek.

    Jooyamoolya Cave Loop via Ship's Stern Circuit
    Great walk. Graded track all the way. Well maintained. Spend the entire day out there because there's so much to see. Not difficult, only the distance to think about. Views to die for!
