Then you will no issues since your not towing a camper. Check the road conditions for the Canning.

Hi Mike
I was on the CSR from Well 5 to Wiluna a week ago, its open and dry as a bone.
Unless there is cyclonic rains between now and your departure you will be ok.

I believe there is no fuel dump delivery at well 23 due to the truck blowing up. Might be worth checking. I think i read it on an earlier post.

Hi Mick

I was interested to know how much fuel you were taking?
Is your vehicle diesel or petrol?
What type of fuel consumption would you expect on the CSR and what do you usually get on the highways/city?

Cheers, Will.
