Thanks evanbb.
It is certainly an adventure. More so if you like climbing on choss!
... though Black Perry is completely different rock to the 'cave cliff'. ~> By comparison it is hard/compact and very run-out for pro!

It still has that effect on me. Whenever I travel past it I always stop to refresh the memories, though my new found m/cycle partners don't understand the attraction!
There is a better view of it from an old road cutting (now bypassed), near the present 'lookout' which is badly overgrown.

If you ever want to explore in there, I recommend following the ridge-lines and spurs. It is outrageously steep country, and following the creek involves blerrie cold water or densely overgrown banks!
