The other one could be taken from Wheelers Hut, although I think Jagungal would be in view (if not out of shot to the left?)?

Correct fatman. I think Jagungal is hiding behind that veranda post and the eucalyptus.

Not far from the previous two photos. Possibly more commonly photographed to include the lower falls where I'm standing.

Assuming you mean at Fitzroy Falls? No, these are smaller and marginally harder to find, though not difficult.
There was once a very short direct route to here that I think has been closed for many years.
I had a bit of a short-ish hike in on a pass that a saintly Santa might use.

I was referring to the falls that drop into Yarrunga creek, I thought they were twin falls?

Dunno then?

Not those either. You are in the right general area but this locality is close to a very touristy village.

Yes that's it. We walked in via Nicholas Pass then down to Bundanoon Creek and back.

Looks different when you take away the bottom bit. Similar theme in NSW again:

Not Belmore. This (named) waterfall is significantly harder to get to, despite the name of the waterway that flows over it.
