Hi Smokey
The Flinders is a very big area and it will all depend on where you want to go. This great rain that we have had will be great for the area, making those usually dry creeks run and generally giving the countryside a real face lift. We are not in the middle of winter and with the now longer and warmer days, you will be surprised how quick the tracks will dry out. I have been told from locals up that way that this is the best display of wild flowers in decades and that alone is worth the trip.

Cheers

As with weather in most parts of the world it can change very quickly.

The Flinders is no different and no one on here has a crystal ball!

A bit of advise...check the weather a day before leaving and on the day you leave....but things can still change and accessible area can become unaccessible.

Be prepared to get stranded for a few days if they close roads.

If you want to be sure the roads are open go when it's hot..... but then again even in summers there can be big rains flash flooding.

tis thebest time of the year for the flinders and hey it dont rain 90% of the time and if it does it dries out fast
will be up there as soon as my new motor gets put in no hesitation ---and from reports its the best season in years
