Copperfield Gorge is formed in a different manner to Cobbold Gorge. Whereas Cobbold Gorge is formed by a Fault Line, Copperfield Gorge was formed by Volcanic Action at a similar time to the nearby Undara Lava Tubes. Copperfield Gorge began as a Lava Tube but over time the roof has collapsed and left an open Gorge through which The Copperfield River now runs, when it rains, that is.
After clambering all over the Gorge, we wandered back to The Pub and boarded Max's Toyota Bus for the journey back to Forsayth. The 'through' passengers on The Savannahlander got back on the train to continue their journey to MT Surprise.
Obviously, The Einasleigh Hotel.
