Visited a few days ago.
Very pleasant grassy spot with stunning views of the cliff line. Interesting historical ruins. Wildlife aplenty, large herd of Roos and plenty of bird life. No Possums! I was awoken about 10pm to the noise of a brumby moving rapidly over the grass. Glad I camped among the trees not in the field.
Sadly, waterfall creek is virtually dry. A couple of revolting pools remaining. Id have to seriously think whether Id prefer dying of thirst before drinking from them.
Ended up using an ‘alternative source’.
NPWS should think about installing one of the rainwater collection shelters/tanks at Kedumba crossing similar to what they have at ruined castle, especially as their ‘plan’ once was to have people camp at Ruined Castle and Kedumba Crossing, thus avoiding fouling Chinamans on Solitary (as much).
There is a lot of infrastructure at Kedumba Crossing already: picnic tables, fire pits and toilets. Several big weatherproof equipment boxes are at the site seemingly waiting for the day future infrastructure upgrades are scheduled.
The climate is only getting drier, waterfall creek is getting more unreliable it seems... I ran into a large party of dads with their kids and they had all been drinking from the Kedumba River. It seems most people now do. Not great!
Quite a bit of restoration work currently being done on the Kedumba slab hut. There was a large several hundred litre plastic container of what could be water at the site. Though I wasn’t game to have a taste in case it ended up being some sort of chemical or wash being used for the restoration work.
