Gunbarrel Highway

It is a long flat track(or tracks) passing through some low scrub, scattered gums and desert oak trees. Eleven years ago, when I drove it, there were trillions of corrugations and a number of items on my truck shook loose or fell apart and I had to do some roadside maintenance. The Gunbarrel Hwy has never been maintained. The grader does go as far as Carnegie Station maybe once a year coming from Wiluna. So make sure all the nuts and bolts on you vehicles are tightened up with locktite or something similar and do carry some spare shockabsorbers and suspension bushes. Enjoy!!! :o)
