To those that are interested. A few of us have just completed a trip from Well 33 to Alice on the Gary Junction Road, the road condition was excellent but fuel was a pain to get at Kiwikurra and Kintore.

Steve,
we had no trouble at Kintore or Kiwirrkurra - diesel that is - at Easter. What was the Lens truck display like at Kiwi ? It was still out on the road at Easter.

It's a shame Lens truck got moved, but considering the effort put in by those who moved it, the display is excellent. At Kintore we couldn't get anyone to serve us due to lack of employees and didn't really feel like hanging around. As it was we had enough fuel to get from Well 33 to Papunya.

Willem,
I updated my details and it wouldn't let me keep Member - Bob as there were several Bobs. As I am a long term admirer of that organisation (as in Get Smart), I borrowed it for my screen name.

Steve did they still have the security guards at Kintore general store?

Not surprised about the lack of staff, considering the problems they have had that require the security nobody wants to work there.
We were advised to steer clear.

What was the problem at Kiwirrkurra with fuel ?
As Bob said Diesel no problems when I was there in June.
