Cameron's Corner - Strezlecki track

Parts of the route you suggest are very stony (sections of the Strz and the Oodna) - poor weather aside, progress should be fine, but rattling along some of those stony sections can take a toll on tyres where decent loads are in the mix. I haven't travelled mid QLD yet, but if you've covered some stony rough and tumble stuff in the van, then you know what to expect. Should hasten to add that many of the road sections you intend to travel in SA could be quite smooth.

If you are prepared to take it easy, the van should do the trip. The roads are wide gravel predominently, but can be hellish stoney and have bulldust holes.

You should do it in four weeks without being too rushed, though as always, more time would allow you to really get to know the laces.

Anne,
If you have been to Birdsville & along the Plenty H'way, the roads you are going to take are the same. Good after the grader has been over, bad after rain.
Go slow & enjoy

That's all fairly easy travelling.

For up to date road conditions with details of the cautions, if any you can check out transport sa website and look at road conditions far north.

I would recommend that you take it easy at every creek, especially on the Oodna they are the last bits to get repaired and the first to get damaged so are often a bit rough, especially justt after rain.

The Strez is pretty good and should present no probs

From Camerons to Merty Merty, just watch some of the dune crests. The road is gravel covered but there are often holes just over the crests and some are pretty steep. A lot of fun can be had with the light tummy feeling but don't get carried away. There are also some soft sandy bits just before Merty Merty when you are travelling north in the swales between dunes but nothing too bad.

If you haave kids I recommend asking at the Corner Store how the $5 notes get up on the ceiling. It's a lot of fun.
Have fun.
