Name:
Deanes Amphitheatre
Description:
is a hemispherical overhang, calculated as 25 m deep, 70 m high and more than 80 m in width. This overhang consists of layer upon layer of glorious honey coloured sandstone. The floor, however, is a disappointment, sloping at roughly 35 degrees. A sandy pool at the base of a dry (at the time of recording) waterfall measured at more than two meters in depth. Located on the eastern side of Deanes Creek and 500 m north east of Rock Island. Named by Yuri Bolotin on a bushwalk of 19 December 2013.
