"Queenstown Falls"
 "Queenstown Falls" is a name I made up to describe this impressive unnamed seasonal waterfall that surprised us when we were leaving the scarred mining township of Queenstown. The falls looks to have a track leading from the pullout with the Iron Blow Open Cut sign towards the bottom of the waterfall, but we didn't take the time to do the walk. Besides, you can get very satisfying views of the falls from the curvy road leading to or from Queenstown where there's a tight pullout to view the waterfall. I reckon this waterfall is seasonal because it only flows after heavy rains or during the rainy months of winter. We were lucky that we had received a good deal of rain as we were leaving the township and heading east into the Tasmanian Wilderness; despite the drier-than-normal conditions we were used to seeing around the rest of Tassie.
