That really helps a lot Garry, will check out how to access northern boundary of KNP. Sounds like it will be away from the crowds
Thanks Pandora

Thanks Michael, that allays my fears 'hairy' climbs, hope for a clear day.
Cheers pandora

Should add that as at Flea Creek, the ACT Government has installed long drop toilets and fire areas at both sites and makes sure that toilet paper is available. I know we are spoilt. There are some good drives from both. Tires down to 25 psi you vehicle will take them all on.

thanks for the tips Terry, have a generic dome tent that we can stand up in, air mattresses and sleeping bags. Will be sure to pack some thermals for night time
cheers pandora.

I have been a regular visitor to Flea Creek - always been dry and dusty and I have wondered what it would be like after rain because of the clay base. Imagined it would be quite difficult.

Hi Terry
A slight drizzle and you can feel the difference. A lot more wheel spin occurs very quickly.
I reckon you could easily become trapped down there if it really rained overnight and you didn't notice it.

The Webb's Ridge side has a lot rockier base than the Gentle Annie side and not as steep.

I have been into both in heavy rain in my old Freelander softroader and had no issues - however bogans do get in there and take great delight in chewing up the tracks and then it can be fun - once when coming out of McIntyres in my Landrover 101 which is has diff locks and 35" muddies I came close to having to using the winch - all due to yobbos.

So I guess it depend on the weather but more so if the bogans have been in there.

The bog holes under the power lines next to Two Sticks Track is now closed due to people deliberately ripping it up and causing damage.

Ohh - a safety warning - lots of speeding bikes, ATVs and bogan 4wds so be careful particularly on bends because they will not be taking care. I have had an ATV under the bumper of my 101 and had a couple of bikes come a cropper in front of me when they spotted me lumbering up a hill and they were speeding down and spotted me at the last possible moment.

Only a matter of time before the tracks were closed. The Brindies get a lot of bleep morons chewing up the place.
Its interesting looking at the tread patterns in the mud when that area is dry. usually a few similar to tractor patterns which tells you a lot about the owner.
