Hi Doc - good to see the
feedback you have got, as we were looking for the same type of info.
We went up in 2006 by ourselves in July - a 100 series towing a camprite, four kids. We did the whole OTT both ways on our own. But having said that - at many of the corssings, there were others, so a couple of times we had some
young lads calling our wheels line and available to help winch if needed. Sometime just the company and another opinion, or watching a vehicle go before you is a help, even if you aren't in their party.
Our hairiest moment was going south over the wooden log
bridge, we had a tricky line to get car and camper into place, handbrake not working on a lsope.... we were totally alone for 2 hours or os, no-0one else travelling that day it seemed, and did it all ourselves. Very proud of our achievements.
Our approach then was to always assess if we could return through previous crossings, so that if we came to one that we chose not to do, we could backtrack. However, we never decided to backtrack!
Considering the other tracks you have mentioned, CSR etc, you will have no trouble, even if alone - just assess each obstacle and make your own decisions.
