Shane,
Have traveled this road a few times.
Lots of little rocks/stones around once you turn south where
Balladonia Road intersects Parmango Road....lowering trye pressures helps to smooth the road. Some slower rocky spots in
places. The top half of
Balladonia road is usually not a bad dirt road. Heading south from the intersection can be tight in the bottom half, with a few bog holes if wet, heading into
Israelite Bay. This section has good
views to the ocean and
Mt Ragged.
We traveled with our camper trailer last time without any issues.
Brett....

Rays rocks approx 75 south (from memory) and around 12k off to the left good spot to
camp road in and out ok (was dry though)
Good trip, limited camps at
Mt Ragged,

Travelled down the track 2 years ago with a camper trailer in tow. Not a bad road/track but a bit rocky in
places. Didn't drop the tyres as we didn't travel very fast. Cape Arid a great spot, down there early this year. Good fishing, lovely Abalone!!
If you want a bad track try the
Rawlinna to Cockelbiddy one. 12 hours to travel 156 Ks.
Cheers
