Ivanhoe to menindee

Gday
In 1999 it was a fast dirt road, with some sandy patches and corregated areas....We (3 80 cruisers) took this road heading for Minindee with two caravans and a camper trailer in tow.

Should be good, however it is a black soil road in parts so no go in rain.

We drove it a couple of years ago just after they'd had a heap of rain(well,enough to close the road)Tha road closure signs were still up when we drove it(checked with powers to be to check condition,was told it was open,just but signs were still in place)It was a good dirt road with a few by passes due to water over road.Very pretty drive,well worth it.

Have travelled this way heaps ,its my standard route to/from Broken Hill and points west.
have found it quite variable over last 5 years depending on graders, rainetc . these roads were closed last trip in july so cannot offer latest advice although likely to be a bit cut up.still preferable to all the blacktop and a s others have said interesting drive.

If you're coming from Hillston it's certainly an easier drive than the Hillston to Mossgiel road which is soft even when dry and pretty much impassable when wet.
As always, YMMV depending on vehicle, tyres, etc.
