I have just come back from taking 17 vehicles with me across the simpson, and we went back as
well.
Fuel at Mungerinnie is alot dearer than
birdsville, we monitored channel 10 on a hand held UHF which gave us about 2 dunes notice of approaching traffic, so we didnt have to hear them for
miles, and we used our main channel for the group on the in car radio, worked
well.
Oodnadatta was great, fuel was cheaper than
birdsville, the blue poles cafe was great in
Birdsville, the waa and rig rd, and colson track were great, the french line sucks, because people dont deflate tyres, and also try and tow trailers, making the french line a mess.
the warbaton track was also good, lots of varying terrain if you go warby track,
rig road, colson, short french line, to purnie,then dalhousie or vice versa
