Erith Coal Mine and Falls

Short walk in the Bundanoon section of Morton National Park. The coal mine worked a seam that was exposed in the cliff line next to a creek and waterfall. Apparently the tunnels followed the seam for kilometres underground.

Sunshine wattle brightening up a winters day.

The entrance to the coal mine, leaving a column of coal to support the roof.




The view of the falls from the coal mine entrance. 

An easy but steep walk down to the pool at the bottom of the waterfall. 



Cant have enough photos of a waterfall and a reason to justify carrying all the different lenses. 




Looking down the creek from the falls

Back at the picnic area the Brown-headed Honeyeaters  were collecting kangaroo fur for their nests.
