Hi Brendan
The Connie Sue is a very under rated drive and for some strange reason, does not attract the same number of visitors that head for many of Len's famous tracks. You will have all type of driving conditions, so it will be a matter of driving them to suit you.
The only real sign that you will encounter after leaving
Warburton is in an old 44 gallon drum, so if you are not looking for it, you will miss it quite easy. For this reason, it would help you greatly if you had a moving map (e.g. Ozi), as many of the great sites that lead off of the Connie Sue, are just two wheel track of no indication where they will take you. Two very good examples of this are Hennings Tank and Neale Breakaway.
Do as much research as you can, as there is a lot to see and some things are very easy to miss if you do not know that they are there or what you are looking for. You will have full Telstra NextG phone coverage at
Rawlinna, so you will be able to catch up on family and friends when you arrive there. You will have to head west a couple of kilometres and keep an eye out for a
gate (copy of photo below) on your left, and they just follow the green arrows as far as the dog fence, and from there in a general south direction. It is a slow drive, but has its own type of beauty. If you intend yo
camp in this section, make sure that you have a small supply of wood, as you will find nothing.
A great drive and you will enjoy it greatly.
Here are some images of what you will find along the Connie Sue and then south from
Rawlinna to Cocklebiddy.
Cheers
Stephen
