Camping at Mitchell River Crossing near Mt Mulgrave

Pete,

This not much of a camp site. It is on Mt Mulgrave and they don't mind campers, but you should make contact with them.

Hope you don't plan on getting to Maytown from Palmerville. Access has been denied for some time now.

Patrol22,
We were thru that way in 2002.Tried to cross the Mitchell north of Dunbar Stn but water and aerartion of sand forced a reconsideration(Towing trailers).We punted on to the next crossing of the Mitchell & camped for the night.The road crews were here doing the concrete causeway and were directing the "camping area".

This was a great spot and we departed the next morning up the Palmerville Rd.
Things got a little complicated at the Palmerville Stn but the LADY of the Homestead was exceedingly helpful and seemed appreciative of the interaction. She said it was so busy that sometimes 4 to 6 vehicles came by each day.Never the less she gave us some directions to pass thru the property and cross the river.A decent pull out of the ford.

We travelled from here to the Hahn River Roadhouse.
I dont know if the road is "closed" or if so where.I doubt given the warm reception at Palmerville that the problem is here .

My advice would be to ascertain the truth of the matter and if at at all possible TRAVEL THIS ROAD. It is not difficult but a very pleasant way to come from the Gulf to the Cape or East coast

Pete,
Thats correct we crossed at that ford .the road crew were making a concrete causeway at the time.We camped the night on the northern bank off to the right.
Hope this helps
