Thargomindah to Wompah Gate.

G'day Wim,

Travelled up from Tibooburra along this track through Bulloo Downs Station back in 2001. As it is a fairly well used track for the station hands, it was pretty good back then. I had permission from the station before hand and recommend you contact the manager at Bulloo Downs before proceding with trip. They were quite happy for us to use the track and gave permission to camp overnight at one of the creeks too. Since Stanbrokes have since sold their pastoral holdings, i can't say whether this is likely to have changed.

Re. the track. It was a good drive with some interest along the way. Notably the station itself, a fair degree of bird and animal life (watch out for stock too) and at a creak crossing not far from Wompah gate, there was the rusty shell of an old Land Rover up in a tree. Not sure if this is true, but we were told it floated into the tree during a flood and instead of recovery, they stripped the motor and running fear for spares. Either way it is a sight to see!

It is a good alternate route to going through Noccundra though.

Enjoy your trip.
