Anyone travelled the
Birdsville or Strzelecki tracks in the last couple of weeks? Wondering about condition of road given rain a few weeks ago? Cheers

Peter or Ivan, have either of you used
Walkers Crossing recently? I know it is currently closed due to flooding, by I won't be up there until late August - just wondering what it was like when not flooded.
Thanks :-)

Not since 2018.
Easy drive, wide road, corrugated between graders.

Walkers is closed indefinitely. It is a private road that is opened at the stations and Moomba will. We were told they are sick of idiots driving were ever they liked.

Peter_n_Margaret. It's a far different track now. The only a few graded bits and the rest was a basic
farm track with lots of water damaged sections. We did it just before they closed it last time and it hasn't been opened since

Thanks guys; really hoping to do it later in the year, but I note what you say about it being closed indefinitely. Annoying when idiots bugger it up for everyone else who just wants to explore a different route.
