Rubicon Falls

Rubicon Falls

Another shot from my little anniversary get away two weeks ago. By the overgrown and faint nature of the trail in combination with the profusion of blackberries I don’t imagine this drop would get many visits. Getting to the top of the falls isn’t too difficult, getting to the bottom however was a little more involved.

The falls are in the middle of a big loop in the river, the two ends of the loop in combination with a significant altitude drop being too much of a temptation for the hydro engineers to ignore. So despite its relatively modest flows just above the falls is a weir with a pipe running over the neck of the loop with a small hydro generator at the bottom. The result is a very modest flow in between where the falls are even in spring. Still a nice drop despite this.

Took heaps of shots and finally packed everything up to go home then as I was recrossing the river saw this angle and thought…

    I love the hovering timber in the middle, it contrasts the flow of the Toolangi Falls water nicely.
    Great work once more.
    Looks even better close up!

    lovely work. This would also be a great book cover for evil story….there is a man with horns and long flowing hair about to cast a spell! (well, my imagination is in over-drive again – it is the flowing water down the rocks)
