This was a nice walk in from past Lamin's Hill along an old forestry road. The valleys overlooked were deep and rugged. There was a nice swimming hole upstream from the falls - reached from an alternate descent from the end of the road where there was an old picnic table.

Lunch at Windin Falls. Noel Brooks and Phil Murray mid-stream above the falls.
