 Description
The Plumridge Lakes Road is much straighter, wider than Naries Point Rd and had the odd rocky outcrop or wash out. The country was also much prettier than Naries Point Rd, with breakaway country, many mounts and small salt lakes. Features to be seen from the road include, Sherk Range, Wilson Range, Mt Carlton, Signal Point, Mt Hickok, Point Bott and Mt Luck to name a few.

If you are travelling to the south of Lake Rason, the lake itself isn’t in view of the road.

Vegetation varies from previous with more mulga and marble gum patches and less spinifex but more kangaroo grass patches.

If there has been rain in the area take care because there can be very boggy patches to catch the unwary. A vehicle was bogged for 4 hours on a previous trip. We were in a convoy of 6 vehicles and two of the rescuers had to be rescued first before they could get to lead and bogged vehicle.
Check with Laverton Police or Laverton Shire if uncertain about track conditions.

 Trek Notes
West Great Victoria Desert West Great Victoria Desert
This trek covers the western section of the Great Victoria Desert and is definately 4WD country. If you take this route you will follow in the footsteps of explorers Frank Hann, The Elder Expedition and Len Beadell. [Feature Story]

 Places within 5km
Frank Hann (FH) Rock Inscription [1.41km]  
Point of Interest 
Look for Hann’s “FH” inscription on a rock face on your left as you look at the rock hole. Hann named these rocks in 1902. Please respect the area, don’t add your own inscriptions, as is already in evidence. It’s a nice place to camp but bring your own wood.
