G'day everyone .. I'm a new member from SA & am impressed with the information & ideas sharing on ExplorOz site & forum. I'm planning a trip in early June from home (Moonta) to Rawnsley Park Station in Flinders R, Birdsville Track to Cooper Creek crossing, back to William Creek & maybe a flight over Lake Eyre, O Track to Oodnadatta & across to Cadney Homestead .. then home on the Stuart Highway. Would appreciate feedback from anyone who has travelled any of this route recently re road conditions, must-see places of interest etc. .. particularly the trip home on the black road ??!! Thanks

Send Roachie (member) an email.(Check his profile)

He is in the Yorke Peninsular 4x4 Club, and they regularly meet at Kadina.
There is also Paul, the Monumental Stonemason, from Moonta.
They will be able to help

Tommy,

Currently in the Alice having just travelled through the Flinders, William Creek, Oodnadatta, Musgrave Ranges, Uluru, Kings Canyon to the Alice via the Merrinie Loop. Flight over Lake Ayre was excellent. Roads are all pretty good including the Merrinie Loop. Travelled mostly dirt.
