The Wenlock was the last to get a high level
bridge (that still goes under water in the wet season). This particular
bridge was opened in April 2001 I believe.
The following holds true for August 2012 (be aware the things could change with the wet season each year):
Gunshot: There are a number of difficult approaches on the southern side but also a very easy crossing. The northern bank is very easy.
Cannibal: Moderate on the south bank when approaching from the south - north bank is quiet easy. Exiting the south bank from the north is seriously difficult and for most vehicles will require winching.
Nolans (
Bridge Creek): What Olsens Tours says - go and have a look but frankly it is not worth the potential for catastrophe.
Logans Lagoon: This is often quite deep and the short run across is also soft underfoot. Keep to the western side and use a blind - but once again.....if you don't need to do it don't.
Other crossings: For the most part the other crossing on the OTL are easy to moderately difficult. All are quite pretty. But again....take a walk, wait a while and watch others and then make up your mind. Me - I'm not to partial to water crossings and only do them once I'm confident I've done a full assessment. The final question you should ask yourself before entering a water crossing IMHO is: "Do I really need to go there?"
