Overnight:

21 days Bush Camping, allow for weather events to push out the time on the track.

Trips Details:

Like corrugations? well this track has a few on its 2000 odd km length.
It's not for the faint hearted, just getting to the kick off point is a long drive, then you have to get back home. Leaving Kalgoorlie we head north to Wiluna and our last fuel before Kunawarritji  (Well 33).
The lower section is easy peasy from 33 north it gets a little more interesting. Queen baths is on the list of must see as are all the wells. Do your homework on this stock route prior to even expressing your interest in the trip.
The trip will conclude in Halls Creek. so we will see Wolfe Creek crater as well. Have a holiday in the Kimberly's or high tail it back home if you have to work.

Caravan park details etc. will be advised once I know the numbers.

I stress this is not an easy trip, 21 days of sand and desert, flies, corrugations take their toll on personalities and vehicles, experience is required.

Bring your wallets with cash, you will be hit up for a RFDS donation. Its always handy to have cash with you just in case the EFTPOS machine isn't working.
