Ellis F No, the 1100ks does NOT include the trip to Cotton
Creek. The price of diesel at Cotton
Creek was $3.20pl, the community at
well 33 was $3.40.
We refuelled at Cotton
Creek, went out to the Nat
Park and refuelled again at Cotton
Creek before going up to
well 33. From
Wiluna to Cotton
Creek is about 870km. There to
well 33 fuel was about 700 I think without checking.
Lazylux16 I reckon it is worth seeing. Its a remote place and because I'm not out that way often, why not do it while I'm there. 2nd time I have visited it. The track in is heavily corrugated, but then so is the whole length of the CSR. The track that leads to
Newman from the CSR (and thus the turn off to Cotton
Creek and Rudall) was as smooth as a babys backside. Due to mining influence. So, if you are out there, why not - it's a long way back.
I used the Hema maps (+ the Hema Rudall Nat
Park map), Natmaps and a 1:50000 map. That was a bit to small a scale though.
