It’s pronounced “Bunoo Boonoo” Thou tbh I had to ask Kylie how Bunoo was pronounce differenty to Boonoo.

One is “bun” and one is “boon”. She explains patiently to her favourite idiot.

Anyhoo

After a pleasant morning at Bald Rock the day has heated up and so we drive past the campsite and head to the main falls.

The road runs along the creek as it tumbles through a little granite gorge. It looks like it would have plenty of nooks and crannies to explore.

From the car park tourist trails lead to rock pools above the falls or down to a viewing platform over the main drop.

He head down to the lookout. It’s an easy 5min walk.

A 260m cascading waterfall tumbling into the steep sided gorge below.

Beyond the fenced path glimpses of old trails hint at adventure. If it wasn’t so hot or dry we may have been tempted.

Instead we make our way up to the rock pools intent on a dip.

The main pools at the end of the trail are beautiful, but why stop at there when there’s so much to explore.

We make our way upstream

You can see just how low the water is by the waterline on the rocks. But still enough for a cool dip on a hot day.

From here its a short drive back to the camp ground where we set up for the night then explore the camp ground

An evening storm is our first real test in the Alucab in heavy rain. Lessons learnt: the make shift rain gutter works well but even with it on leaving the door open wasn’t a great idea…

Next morning we get up early and head to BasketSwamp Falls for sunrise.

From here we’d be heading west into Queensland… sounds weird but the border does a little curve here. Bald Rock in NSW is North East of Girraween in Qld.
