Going to Birdsville..........

Give Ruth a call at the caravan park.
AFAIK there's been no rain out that way for quite a while...

Hello MrBitchi - you're right. NO RAIN OUT HERE! Now, Reiner, which way are you coming into Birdsville? This is what I know.
Windorah to Betoota - 110 klms bitumen then good dirt.
Betoota to Birdsville (travelled it at the weekend) - 170 klms of dirt which has large wheel ruts from a large cattle truck right down the guts of the road. At the Durrie Station turnoff there is a very dangerous bog hole (dry, but deeply rutted on a corner). Apart from that it's not too bad.
Yes there is water in the Diamantina River and Cooper Creek (Windorah) but no, won't be enough to cause floods out here.
Cordillo Downs Road - in very good condition and due to a good shower of rain recently, looking green around Cordillo homestead area.
Road to Big Red - quite ordinary.
Birdsville Track - Queensland section (again cut by truck after shower of rain) but graded for the rest.
Hope this helps.
Ruth

Reiner, the supply truck driver came in yesterday and says the Cluny to Windorah Road is the best he's ever seen it, so that's lucky!
