Simpson Desert Track conditions

do a search as there have been a few posts from recent travellers, basically it is soft, hard going.

A group of us were there a couple of weeks ago.
The desert is very dry and the tracks reflect that.
Drive to the conditions and all should be fine.

Bring your woollies - it's 3 degrees here at the moment - and will be colder in the SD!! Sure makes a nice change after the summer.
Morning, Wim!

Thanks for the heads up, it was very cold at night last time I was there but I rather cold weather than hot.

Hopefully I will see you in Birdsville in a few weeks.

Can't wait to get into that remote country again!

Very sandy in places but by now some of the sand crests would have been pushed down a tad.

Drop your tyre pressures to 15psi hot and you will be OK

We crossed west to east a couple of weeks ago on French Line. Track was very easy, with only a few dunes needing a "second go" because didn't have enough momentum up.
My overloaded 100 series TD did it all except Big Red in high range. I ran about 20 pounds in my tyres because of the load I was carrying.
East to west looked like it would be a bit more challenging, but still very doable, with more soft sand on east side of dunes.
Hope you enjoy it as much as we did.
Regards
