JC Slaughter Falls is a waterfall situated within the Mount Coot-tha Forest, approximately 10 kilometres west from Brisbane Central Business District, in Queensland Australia. The JC Slaughter Falls picnic area contains the landscape of eucalyptus forest, established picnic facilities and a parking area. It is an access point for enthusiastic bushwalkers, with over seventy trails leading through the Mount Coot-tha Reserve. (Wikipedia) JC Slaughter Falls was named after a town clerk of Brisbane, James Cameron Slaughter, although there are many more sinister theories behind the name. An Aboriginal Art Trail also brings history to JC Slaughter Falls, through pieces of Aboriginal Art created as part of the International Year for the World’s Indigenous People in 1993. Slaughter Falls picnic area designs were established during the 1960s
