I presume you exited the road just up ahead.
What was the ascent like?

We took the very steep ridge on the right-hand side (just past the larger gully with the shadow). There was a cut track, but it was very steep and slippery. It rained the night before which made the exposed rocky section near the top very sketchy. I have since been told there is a cut track up the Razorback Spur which avoids the steep, rocky section.

Very cool shot!

Something a bit different; the name of the river is what I'm looking for :)

Not the Franklin River.
This river is in the northern half of the state.

Leven River looks a lot like that, near where Tor Creek joins it.

But then so do many others, so it's a shot in the dark.

Much closer...
This river also drains into the Bass Strait

This is a tough one. It reminds me of the Upper Liffey but that doesn't drain directly into Bass Straight.
Maybe the Mersey?

Well done John, the Mersey indeed!
This shot was taken approximately 2km upstream of Reg Wadley's Memorial Hut.
We hit this delightful spot on our descent of Cathedral Mountain.

Thanks Reubs. I've walked to Lees Paddocks/Hut but not further upstream.

Not Rocky Cape NP. Much closer but still some distance away.

We did return via Bakers Beach.
