Urgently need current Canning Stock Route Feedback

Juergen,

Like you I will heading to the Canning Stock Route soon, and as far as I know there has not been any problems with the track.

Savory Creek does have a detour around if the creek crossing is not passable.

I hope you have a good trip across to Australia and an even better trip along the Canning Stock Route.

Savory creek was fine when we did it last year and as far as I have heard there have not been any big rains out that way. Wasn't a drop of water near the crossing for a good few hundred metres either side. When you get to it you actually drive along it for some time before crossing over and continuing. As pointed out, there is a very long detour around it but even with some water in it, I would still attempt it if you had all the recovery gear. Think you would have no problems though.

We actually got so sick of the corrugations that day that when we hit Savory creek, we drove along it for about 2-3km's and then almost missed the crossing. It was so nice to sit on nice hard salt that was as smooth as a baby's bum.

Have a wonderful trip Juergen. You have probably seen more of the Australian outback than i have.

Hi @ll,

thank you very much for your valuable comments. Sounds great!
And thanks a lot for wishing us a nice trip. I am sure we will enjoy it.

We will travel well prepared. We will have all necessary gear/equipment in case we get bogged, will travel with two well-prepared vehicles and have especially concentrated on preparation for any medical emergencies. We will carry a wilderness first responder kit, not only for our own protection but also to help any other people in case of a medical emergency.

Cheers from bloody boring Dortmund/Germany,

Juergen
