This time I set out to have a look at Big Horse Shoe Bend, and Wine Glass Tor. I got as far as Big Horse Shoe Bend and turned back. Wine Glass Tor is on the top of the cliffs on the eastern side of the Shoalhaven River. Getting to the Tor would have required crossing the river and the climbing Backbender Buttress, an additional five hundred metre climb. Too much water to cross this time. I was happy to turn back at the river and miss out on Backbender, maybe another day.
