QAA is possibly going to give you some heartache towing, all the larger dunes are on the east side . . . but K1 to Rig Rd
junction, then west to Dalhousie / Mt Dare along
Rig Road should be ok, it's the easiest route by far at the moment.
From
Warburton well into the desert it was graded and dunes right along are very little to give you bother.
We drove it in late Oct on a crossing that way, it's very easy going.
Once you hit French Line again, you will have some dunes to conquer, but not as many going FL or WAA, FL especially is very hard going, did that in July, so many undulations.
Just drop vehicle and trailer tyre pressures to say 15, and if necessary lower, you should be ok.
Take plenty of fuel, at least double what you'd use on sand driving, 200, possibly best to take at least 200lt, I'd be taking a bit more in case of detours or turnaround.
If it rains, you'll probably have to abandon a crossing, as all of them are pretty boggy in the east, and detours around big claypan lakes.
Mid year you should be ok, as most rain is in the summer from the tropical systems up north.
