Sliprail Creek damage?

Does anyone know what's happened to Sliprail Creek where it crosses the Medlow Gap Firetrail? Has a flood been through there or a bulldozer? Makes me sad every time we walk through there. I'll feel better if it's due to fast-flowing flood water down the creek.

I went past it a few weeks ago and was pretty surprised myself!

It was during the big rains earlier in the year.
Would've been amazing to have watched it go through. I'm amazed at how it just cut a path, taking everything with it - massive trees and boulders.

Lucky they don't let push bikes along there these days, or the erosion would be really bad.

... But then, if there was no one there to see it, did it make any sound?

Haha. I think they are more worried about the bikes polluting the pristine and safe to drink Coxs River water!

Thanks everyone, I feel better knowing it's due to natural causes and not some bulldozer doing "fire prevention".
