Do a search on the
forum for
Lake Ayre there has been quite a few posts about this and the opinion seems its best to fly over it to see it properly.
A couple of pages ago there were some.

Hi Shane
We were up there last week and flew over the
lake and up to Goyder Lagoon. The water was very close to the viewing area at
William creek end. There is a a heap of water flowing in, & it's proably at the viewing area by now.
Wright Air were excellent - but make sure you book in advanace.
There were a lot of people who were just turning up and hoping to get on a flight.
Cheers
Alex

thanks for relies, have been to the
lake just out of Williams Creek.
I have been told that there is two area's that you can go to out there. I went to the one closest to Williams Creek, have you been to the other further north and can you
camp there?

Hi Alex B,
Has the water reached the eastern side, and is it near the North/ South lakes channel yet.
Your reply will save me contacting Trevor at Muloorina.

Hi Pandj,
The water was 300m or so, from the viewing area (65km road form
William Creek) on the western side of Belt bay. We flew across from
William creek and then followed the western edge of the
lake, then headed NE to Goyder Lagoon. Can't say for sure if it's hit the eastern side ...but there is a heck of a lot of water there.
The guy's at Wright Air will be able to tell you for sure. Their number is 08 8670 7962.
Hope this is of some help.
Cheers
Alex B
