Gday...
Well we got out of
White Cliffs yesterday morning.
White Cliffs road to
Wilcannia not officially open but local traffic using it. There was still water over the road in four
places - first three only about 4" deep but
Bunker Creek was still about 150metres wide and about 10" deep.
We stopped and walked across to
check it out and the sealed road was firm although it was still pretty deep over the road itself so used the extended verge. There ended up four of us - two 4x4s and another two with vans - so we all watched each go across. No problems and we were on our way. Spent last night in
Cobar before pushing off to
Bourke probably Tuesday.
All dirt roads around
White Cliffs are expected to be closed for at least 3-4 days - the whole NW of NSW really damp now so best to come back to the area in a month or so - weather will be much warmer as
well :-)
Cheers
Julie &
John

Although there is not a hell of a lot to do in
White Cliffs, it is a very pleasant place to spend a few days.. I can think of a few worse
places to be stuck.. Good to see you are on your way.. Michael
