Came down the K 1 last week and got to
Kuncherinna Junction and wow the
Rig road is graded and so are parts of the
Warburton track.
we drove in 7 km on the Rig and still graded as far as we could see but time restraints prevented further investigation. lots cut off dune tops and big ramps put in on approach and departure on most dunes.
asked at Mungerannie and Phlil said they took a triple in to refurbish a
bore but wasnt sure where.
Has anyone travelled the full
rig road since it was graded can can advise how far in from east the grading goes.interested because the
Simpson Desert Bike Challenge goes along the Rig.
personally I think they stuffed the
Warburton as lots of deep soft sand in
places where they tried to straighten the track and broke up the packed sand surface experienced last year.
cheers
