Hughenden via
Muttaburra?
Thanks
Pete

Patrol,
Longreach to
Hughenden is only bitumen part of way,
Longreach to
Muttaburra. Then its black soil most of the way into
Hughenden. Most shires have done some repair work now, so it shouldn't be too bad. If you want to go to the 'Curry or the Isa, you are better sticking to bitumen, from
Longreach.
Hooroo...

We did the trip from
Muttaburra to
Hughenden this time last year on the way to
cape york and it was a steady run north from
Muttaburra on a single lane, black soil track. Average speed is about 70 km (I'm fairly cautious) Took about 3 hours if i remember correctly.
Can't comment on the
Longreach to
Muttaburra section as we came from
Barcaldine which was narrow tar all the way with lots of skippy's!!
