G'day
Well I will start off with a condition report on part of the Anne Beadell hwy. We are doing the full thing next year so thought we would have a look at part of it having heard how bad the corrugations are. So last Saturday went from Cooper Pedy out to Emu and back for a day trip, sun-up till sun-down basically but it is achievable without needing to drive like a maniac. After
Mabel Creek station corrugations all the way with the odd smooth patch, most of them were not any worse than what you would find on any dirt road, although there were some bad sections but these had detours around them that were easy to follow. We dropped our tyre pressures down to 24psi, and didn't have any dramas, other than the beer cans had to be opened with caution. I will be so bold as to say that I think
Goog's track when I drove it a few years ago was actually rougher than the Anne Beadell.
So now for my questions; in general for those who have driven the whole thing, does it get any worse than this section or is that fairly representative?
At the moment I am looking at buying Jaco Eagle Outback, the off-road version of their
pop-top caravans. But am debating whether I take this along the ABH, or hire/borrow a camper-trailer for this trip, would a small custom off-road caravan survive this, anyone towed one across before?
Thanks in Advance
