Here I was thinking this would be a bit difficult... and Zapruda has got it correct after 37 minutes. It's Corang River - I arrived via a scrubby off-track route up the river but this spot can be accessed more easily from the Corang Loop track.

Not Breakfast Creek. This is not in the Blue Mountains NP.

Sounds like clues are required to name this cave.

This cave near the Colo River is named after a famous surveyor.

Ah, the interesting "Major" Clews, should have got that one.
Fascinating man, I have a book on the Snowy Hydro history in which he features a fair bit.
Didn't really know about his other adventures until I read this https://coloriver.com.au/history/100_major_clews_biography.pdf
Worth a read.
