Hi there,
We were up there a few weeks back when the heavens opened up. Turns out they opened the road from Camerons Corner for 12 hours. Which we managed timely to slip through unaware of our fate to be. We camped in the Strez and ate flies all afternoon (the worst we have seen in years) and fell asleep in the evening to a spectacular electrical storm brewing... needless to say we were caught in the thick of it, amongst a few other unlucky travelers as
well. We pushed through to
Innamincka and subsequently got caught in town for 7 days due to road closures.
The roads were as imagined and the
Ranger thanked us for sticking to the crown of the road to minimise damage as we got into to town.
Great trip, watch out for the workers around Moomba gas fields, they don't slow down for oncoming traffic and subsequently I need a new windscreen now!

I'm a bit confuzzled here.
From Merty Merty to Innaminka there are two Strz tracks - the old and the new.
Reference to Moomba seems to imply the post was about the new Strz.
Does anyone have info about the OLD Strz between Merty Merty and Innaminka?
We are planning to go up the old from Merty, then down the new to
Lyndhurst.
A member of our group wants to see the experimental geothermal (hot
rock) power generator at Innaminka. Has anyone been there done that? Can anyone save us the time of finding out exactly where it is in relation to Innaminka?
Thanks!
