Don't think I would walk out there either, either piece could break off.

Where would you find this not so useful saw?

I would be heading from Perth to Coolgardie, and pretty close to half way on my trip I would turn left and head north

Nungarin is the correct museum yobarr, over to you.

"but don't have records with me in truck", but you do have a brain which is working fine.

If this is where I think it is, it's changed a bit since I was there. There where no stairs or decking to walk on.

Fern Pool, Karijini National Park

 Got it in one Jeff, we were there May last year. Yes they've upgraded the deck & added seating. The walk in from from the steps is still a bit rough. Although Daless is probably the easiest Gorge to get into..

Back to you.

I am going to guess Niagara Dam. It's man made and it's has camping. Cheers.

Lake Ballard is 192kms by road, Niagara Dam is 72 kms by road.

There is a Mount ???????, next to ??????? Dam.

The Golden Quest Trail took us there.
