The Kimberley

Darian I'll piggy back onto your reply as the Thread to Annie's track report is now archived.

When we travelled the GRR & up to the Mitchell Plateau the ABC Radio gave regular river depth and track access reports which we found invaluable. I presume nothing has changed? People say they don't have the internet to keep abreast of things but the good old ABC often comes to the rescue.

This years info would be more relevant. Kalumburu Road and Mitchell Falls opening soon

Ah you're right Rod I hadn't noted that the archived one was that old. Thought it was Anne's recent report. My comments though are still relevant regarding the ABC's regular reports.

Hi MH
One of the Kalumburu Elders has informed me that the grader is on the road at the moment repairing a few washouts and bad spots.

Thanks Marc; it is showing as open now as far as the Mitchell Falls turnoff. When we went to Kalumburu in 2008 the road was open and being graded from the turnoff north. Several detours around washouts at the time, and when we came back a few days later, the basic grading was almost finished which did make a difference to our rate of travel, which was still slow and cautious while towing.

Sounds like the access to Kalumburu will be early this year :)
