Telfer road is open, and so is Tallawana to well 33. You have no dramas from 33 to Marble Bar, i don't know what the conditions are like east of Well 33. Best person for that info would be well 33 store manager Carl.

Have been researching this route for a trip in the opposite direction.
Not a lot of info about but it appears as there will be little or few problems to be encountered other than the usual (fuel, tyres, water & mechanical breakdowns).

Have been as far as Telfer turnoff and it's smooth sailing for that stretch.

Steve,

we went from Kintore to 80 mile beach in April. West along Desert or Gary Junction Rd to Kunawarritji at Well 33 on CSR then the Wapet or Kidson from there. The Telfer was closed then. To get to Kintore we headed west from Marla, across the top of SA to WA (Wingellina and Blackstone) then up the Sandy Blight Junction Track to Kintore.
The road from Kintore to Well33 is in fair nick. Evidence of recent flooding near Pollock Hills.
