Wawu Dimbi means “spirit in the background”. Thornton Peak is the spirit in the background the same as Mt Demi, Manjal Dimbi, is the mountain in the background of Mossman. If you drive to the end of Forest Creek Road this is where you end up. It used to be a cattle property but now the Jabalbina Yalanji Aboriginal Corporation will use it as an education centre and the site will be revegetated. The property is alongside the Daintree River.
