Hum,

Maybe I need to put a re-entry lock of say 30mins to stop the close/open and re-enter option!

Scoey, why didn't you take the pic straight on, and then we'd know if it's the same. If it's not, it's pretty damn close. Can you remember anything about the area?
If it's a typo, try starting name with a T/H/J/I (slip of the finger...).
Go for it! and G-O-O-D L-U-C-K!

Oh chit! Sorry - I didn't take the pic!!! I'm pretty sure I know the area so I Google'd it and I found a few pics of the area on the net taken by the same person which confirmed for me that I'm looking in the right spot. Didn't mean to take credit for someone elses pic! :-S Yeah I think I'm gonna have to start trying typo's! I think I'm running out of time tho' cause my boss is starting to wonder what I'm doing! haha!

Yeah, righto. I'm not getting anywhere - I reckon it's in the judging comp as a typo. Pretty sure it's near Pilliga - North Central NSW. Lots of fairly small scattered Sandstone Caves. Like i said before but, it's either a typo or it's a local name for a smal cave.
Hope that helps someone!

All that seems to be happening is everyone is making pretty much the same guesses, but trying variations on the name because of the "Type your answer using correct case (a place name is a proper noun)."

Someone said in an earlier post that the answers are being judged by the computer and unless you try the exact name as entered into the computer by David, then it will be wrong, even though you might have essentially the right answer.

To be honest, I think this one has passed the stage of being ridiculous, and the answer should be given out and the prize should jackpot, then we can all go back to our lives and wives.

Close Scoey, but it looks to me like your cave starts at ground level where as the comp cave is a bit higher.

Oh my goodness - not again!

How do you do it - do not answer that as you will tell others.

Those last clues were way to easy. I think this one is a really good one and will take some time again - Ha Ha - (I hope)
