You might be interested that paddle Tasmania describe Lobster Rivulet as "a steep creek featuring 4 major falls (4 m to 7 m), the top of the 4th fall being blocked by logs (grade 5 drop or portage left)."

I've seen 3 but not 4. :D There would ned to be a lot more water than the last time we seen it for the kayaks, could have been a few embarrased beached wales.
That would be a sight to see them run down over the falls when it's in flood.

Totally agree.

By the way what did you take the image from? Looks good.
