Macallister Creek
Another walk up a dried out creek bed- depending on season and rainfall. We finished when we reached a very narrow gorge that ended in a vertical waterfall drop with no way up. We did try to follow a faint footpad up and around to continue, but time was against us. This is part of a 2-3 day walk, but we only did this first bit. It was extremely interesting, with lots of rock pools and gorges.

Mcgrory Falls via Pine Gorge
This is a relatively tough but short hike, leading to one of the biggest yet lesser known waterfalls. The first 3/5ths of the track is well maintained though from Pine Gorge Lookout there is a steep descent into Pine Gorge. It would be a good idea to bring some flagging tape to mark the exit point in the gorge.

Listen for the rumbling of avalanches from the distant Mount Sefton and try to spot them before they crash into the Mueller Glacier below.
