Gallery of log for Waterfalls

21-Sep-14
Our bushwalking group passed by Kings Falls in Arthurs Seat State Park and as there was an 'unloved' GCA cache near the base, I decided to climb down to the bottom at about 13:45 on the flimsy pretext of taking a pickie of the falls (which I did) as opposed to grabbing the cache (which I also did Wink).

I checked to see if the falls had been logged and found they hadn't - until now of course. Dancing

The falls are part of a very pleasant nature circuit complete with information signs. The sign for the falls reads as follows:

Kings Falls
Port Phillip Bay was formed when the land sank between fault lines. Kings Falls are located on one of these, the Selwyn Fault.

As water flowed from the Arthurs Seat ridge to the Bay, it cut through the softer layers of soil and rock to expose hard granite. This granite is now the face of Kings Falls.

In dry weather the creek is just a trickle, and after a downpour its flow increases for a short time.
