Finally found Waihou lookout! If you watch 4wd action dvd's one of the recent Coff's trips Roothy finishes the dvd from this lookout.












after the lookout we took our friends to visit the 70m mine again, he was keen to go in so off we went!

My daughter was keen to come in!



Little bent wing bat living inside



Could stand up inside although you might hit your head in places!





End of the line!

Looks good , whats with the keys ?

The story goes:

Legend has it that a Lithuanian tightrope walker-Jonas Slovenski-hand made this statue in memory to his maker. He came to this forest looking for solitude in the 1960’s and earned himself a reputation as a fearless axeman, mostly because he worked in the nude- wearing nothing but a pair of gumboots. When he wasn’t cutting timber he exercised his balancing skills on cables stretched high above the trees. Local 4wders started hanging old keys on the statue, and so the name stuck.


Unsure of it, there is no history on the keyman which is a shame.
