I am planning a trip July/August from
Broken Hill through
Tibooburra, Cameron's Corner, Merty Merty and Innaminka taking a 18ft tandem axle caravan (not off road but good ground clearance) with a Nissan Patrol. I would like to know if anybody has done a similar trip and how they fared.

You will have no problems Lee as long as it doesn't rain. Even without a van behind, the roads are impassable (and closed with heavy fines - $hundreds) if you use them. So in a sense the van is not a problem except that you will be stuck for longer than solo vehicles. We - all solo 4wds - were stuck for 36hours between Innaminka and
Tibooburra in rain. I personally wouldn't take my van, a 16 footer, on that road. Clearance is not a problem but rough roads, stones, dust etc in my view don't suit road vans. Only consolation is that it doesn't rain a lot up there!! Good luck!
