G'day all. We intend to visit the
Carnarvon Ranges in mid Sept. We are leaving the camper in
Wiluna and tenting for the ranges. My question is; We intend to follow the trek notes (in reverse) and go as far as
Surprising waters but should we return the same way or head back to
Wiluna via Neds Creek and
Wiluna North Rd. Is there much to see and do this way?
Also does anyone have any other tips for the trip? I have searched the
forum and read several threads but the more info I have the better. We are travelling by ourselves (with serviced car, recovery gear, epirb etc) if anybody else is out that way and wants to catch up.
Thanks in advance.
Craig

Hi Craig
If you have the fuel by all means do the round trip.
There are lots of mesas, ranges and different country to see. You can also travel down part of the old RPF. Be warned though if rain has fallen recently the lower end towards Neds Creek turns to mush - we got horribly bogged on one trip thru there.
You should also need to talk to the Hall family (08) 9981 2967 who own Neds Creek - re any potential stock movements etc.
Given the chance would I do that part of the run again - yes.
cheers
Phil
