Hi all,
Looking for first hand current road conditions, and experience of possible conditions early March.
Relocating to
Nhulunbuy for a year and have 2 options:
1. Take a chance and drive. Pajero NM petrol and gas pulling a 4m offroad tradies trailer. I'm advised road is open atm, wet and muddy, river crossings ok, there's been a lot of rain, and it's chopped up, but with extreme caution, is driveable.
2. Put the car and trailer on the boat out of
Darwin. It gets there approx a week later. So we fly in ($700) and pay Toll Shipping $5K.
Would like the challenge, the experience and the excitement of the drive. The NM is pretty stock, the trailer also set up for camping, lots of water and petrol storage, with heaps of clearance, so although the drive is approx 750k, prepared to take 2 or 3 days to get there.
So.....anyone out there done it???
