Reto
Gidday all,
I'm planning to travel Outback Australia in 2006 for a year. I will be in the
Kimberley in July/August an my intention is to travel the Tableland Track from the Morington Wilderness
Camp via Teronis
Gorge to the Great Northern Hwy.
In 2002 I was told at the Old Morington Bushcamp, that the track is flushed away by the last wet season. Anyone with update information or even GPS-data?
Cheers

Reto, as far as I know the track is closed. I have a friend that will know, I will contact him and find out for sure. Maybe someone else will post before I get back to you?

According to Ron & Viv Moon's website for updating the 4th edition of their
Kimberley guidebook:
"The track past Tablelands HS and through Bedford Downs station in the central
Kimberley has been closed and a
locked gate has been erected. It seems early travellers winched their way through Teronis
Gorge and destroyed this private station track thereby making it all but impassable, except with the use of a winch and that hasn’t pleased the local landowners!
Access from the
Gibb River Road end to the delights of Old Mornington Station and the nearby gorges are still possible."
