Hi for those of you who are interested in the Walkers Crossing Track from innamincka to Birdsville (or vice versa) SA National Parks have advised in their Bulletin No. 265 this morning that the Walkers Crossing is still closed and the next review will be in July. This applies to the Inside Track with SA Transport advising is still closed due to flodding - a word of warning, it is not advisable to try and come up from the south as you will be bogged for some hours, even trying to turn around to go back out and up the outside Birdsville Track (as a number of people have discovered in the last few days). Please note that I am talking about the Inside Track - the outside main Birdsville Track is open and flowing with people.
The Simpson Desert (officially) opened yesterday afternoon (Monday 7/6) - although on the western side, Bill Ryan the SA Ranger advised - you are unable to travel north yet from Mt Dare to New Crown because the roads are impassable. Good drying days at the moment should help this. I post this in the interest of safe travel.
