Madigan line and hard floor camper

The Madigan Line is totally different to the other main roads in the Simpson Desert, the QAA. WAA and French Line are walks in the park or major freeways and should not really be compared to the Madigan hence why only a handful tackle it..

Yes can be done with a camper depending on experience and fuel carrying capacity, the only downside I would see with a Kimberley is the HUGH wheel base.... the might get the draw bar stuck on some dunes.

Again it comes down to vehicle set-up and experience..... mostly experience.

The Madigan will show up any faults with vehicle and trailer very quickly and turn them into big headaches.

I'm sure you will get many telling you how bad it is towing a camper and how you should be ashamed of yourselves even thinking about it but the truth is most who will tell you this have never done it and in most cases never towed a real off road camper before or just lack in there capabilities..

No point in taking a trailer out there - its too rough and a trailer is just dead weight.

Just crossed west to east up to c16 only in August this year towing our Ultimate ct.
Myself & others in the group often commented as we dropped down a steep curved dune that an opposite approach would be extremely difficult with a ct.

Maybe possible with friends & big snatch straps with plenty of time.

Try the opposite direction first, you could always have a practice run t'other way.

Remember to fire up the generator at Old Andado if no water in the tank.

Thanks to everyone,

I was considering swapping over to W-E anyway given that we are pretty early in the season. This kind of reconfirms it even if the trailer doesn't come.

Towing a heavy camper with a long drawbar like the Kimberly would be very difficult West to East. Going the other way would be extremely stressful on both the car & the entire group.
