i did the trip you're talking of in oct last year.. 3 of us camped up in the cave up top for 3 nights and down in bottom camp the rest of the week and you could have bivied or tented on the 'top camp' but no-one did while we were there.
Although we got a bit of cabin fever being stuck inside the cave while it was raining one full day; trying to stay warm with our fire, the rest of the time it was warm-hot days and you had to stick to the shaded walls which weren't that plentiful. It was however a a great time and although the walk-in is steep and shade-free, it's not all that long, like neil said, bout 45 without packs and coming down is no prob. If you're lucky there'll still be some water in the creek half-way down you can splash around in like we did a couple of times. the tank up top is a god-send though and big thanks to the SA boys for getting it up there (who were also great hosts as well!)
here's the ccsa link for more info: http://www.climbingclubsouthaustralia.asn.au/index.html
btw the drive up isn't much fun, nice to break it up with a stopover at araps or adelaide or both ;-)
