Kimberly - how's it drying out?

Does not really matter Leroy. You can't do anything about it anyway.
Wait 'till you get there.
If you can get in at all it will be stunning, even if lots of bits are still closed. The earlier you get in, the better the rivers and waterfalls will be.
We have been into the Kimberley 6 times. Still have not seen Bell Gorge...... Next time? Seen lots of other stuff though!
If you can't get in there will be plenty of other options and great things to see and do....
Just stop fretting about it, have FAITH.... and an open mind and plan.


Cheers,
Peter

G'day Leroy,
check out Birgit Bradtke's website, she lives up there and has the latest road conditions.http://www.kimberleyaustralia.com/
cheers Davo.
I hope to be up there later on.

With a similar query in mind, but more focussed on the Tanami, Halls Creek, Kununurra, Wyndham, Timber Creek & Gregory National Park regions, I have been watching the answers to this thread.

However, the lack of response has been deafening. I have taken this to mean that no-one has an accurate answer, so I rang this am & got the following info:

Timber Creek /Gregory National Park/Bullita/Kalkarinji region: Closed - the blokes are out working on the access but do not currently have an expected date to open.

Halls Creek shire say the Tanami Track is not yet officially open, but they currently have a grader on their side of the border.
Alice Springs provided a report that the Tanami Rd on the NT side is corrugated and open.

Cheers

G’day Leroy,

I’m with Peter and Margaret on this one, if your going to go mid April no matter what then there is no point fretting about the road conditions it will be whatever it is when you get there. That may mean that you need to factor in some flexibility in the travels, this is not a bad thing. There seems to be some positive news on the Tanami conditions and if you’re doing the bungles first and Broome second you have a bit of time before you hit dirt again. If things are still not up to travelling then maybe some time in Broome or Kununurra.

Kind regards

Road from Broome to Cape Leveque has not been shut all year. Graders have already done the major damaged parts. Remember its only 100km of dirt any way.
As for the GGR if its open the graders will be on it, they do it 3-4 times a season. Access roads to gorges may still be shut but there are heaps of them to see anyway so some will have to be open.
