In a couple of weeks time I'm looking to travel south from
Birdsville and then cut south east along the "public access route" crossing
Cooper Creek at
Walkers Crossing and then on into Innaminka. Does anyone know if that "public access route" through
Walkers Crossing is open or whether it is too wet?

Walkers Crossing is still listed as closed until further notice. Mike

Hi Ray
The crossing was washed out with the floods and at this stage it looks like it will not be back into action until 2012.
You will have 3 options.
Down the
Birdsville Track and have a ferry ride, and then on to
Lyndhurst then up to Innaminka.
Birdsville to
Innamincka via
Cordillo Downs.
Birdsville to
Innamincka via Arrabury
We are also in that area in 2 weeks time.
Cheers
Stephen

Thanks Stephen. I'll probably now go via
Cordillo Downs.
Do you know if the track from Innaminka to
Coongie Lakes is open?

Hi Ray,
Cooongie Lakes was closed when we were there a couple of weeks ago and possibly for some time yet apparently.

Hi. Ray
Like above,
Coongie Lakes will be out until 2012 at the earliest.
Keep an eye out for my black Prado, as we will be in that area in around that time.
Cheers

I will be going via
Cordillo Downs around 14/8/11.
If you are around about that time keep an eye out for 2 Red HJ80 Cruisers
