These falls are on a side track of a popular track in a popular area

You are in the right area. Closer to Silverband Falls than Briggs Bluff.

I will accept that. Belougery Spire on the left.
We were stopped with a lot of others walkers on the Grand High Tops in the Warrumbungle NP.

Sorry Eggs, I thought Belgourey Spire was the target you were asking about.

Staying in NSW, but moving back towards the coast and south of Sydney. Which is this waterfall with an excellent swimming hole just upstream of it?

Although both fairly similar falls, this better matches my photos of Gerringong Falls......

I'm not surprised that it matches your photos of Gerringong Falls- that'd be because it is Gerringong Falls!

Yep that's it - you can see Mt Conway and Brinkley (if you use your imagination) in the background on the right

There have been at least 4 shots put up in the game from Gillen.

Next one is much harder - we will see how it goes.
The pillar of rock in view has a name - associated with the creek we are in - in SA.

Ah ok didn't realize we had seen one from up there before - its a nice spot and very close to Alice so not surprised.

I'll start the bidding off with a punt and say Telowie Creek/Gorge, as the vegetation and rock compares to photos I have of the area. I have none of the rock formation so can't confirm nor come up with the name of the rock formation either........

Continuing the theme. The tall rock on the right also has a name. As does the creek. NSW.
