canning stock route

Annetine,

You would expect a mixed bag of conditions. Being August and getting late in the travel season, the corrugations along much of the track will be at their worst (if they can get any worse that is).

For conditions I would start with the trek notes here on the site. I have commented in blogs and they are linked below for your information. There are bits and pieces of video in them as well so that should give you a first hand account of what to expect.

Regards

Mick

Back from the Canning

Report from Home Valley Resort.. Gibb River Road

Viv & Ray Accompanyed us and Bails, for a memorable trip.
We left the Canning from Kunawarratji west to Marble bar, then the Kimberley, then back down from Hall's Creek, 13th September,, and it was hot.
We left from Kunawarratji to Alice Springs, 17th September..


The track is basically slow and bumpy ,but at the correct speed, just short of dawdling pace. it will be relatively easy on your vehicle, with correct tyre pressure.

Expect it to be rough and you will not be disappointed, especially either side of Kunawarratji.

If you need additional help,, feel free to email me .....

"we know it is early days and conditions change "
You're correct. Last years or even conditions now are just a guide. It could rain & the whole lot may be flooded or the Savory creek could be impassable so no point getting too concerned about the state of the track. Read Eric Gards Canning Stock route book being the most comprehensive info you'll get for planning then closer to the departure time post again. Groups will have been up just before you in July so you'll get accurate info then.
