Chambers Pillar access

Maybe my memories faded (2007) but I don't recall anything that would cause you grief. We weren't towing but I was driving along wondering if I could have taken our wind-up which we'd left in Alice and thought it would have been fine.

2010 it was a bit rough but you would have no problems then getting in with your rig,

Have a good trip,
RA.

No probs August this year !!

Hi Joe.
We Towed a T-Van there at the end of July this year with a Nissan GQ patrol had no problems and as was stated there is a large hill to climb which might deter a 2wd vehicle. We seen some sand but nothing that would cause any problems that I remember.

Cheers,
Graham

Gday,
Like everyone else has said......you shouldnt have a problem.

Hi Joe

It you read that about 20 years ago, that is what it was like. The last 2 times that we were out there, the dunes were capped with rubble and the original low range, very cut up climb was graded and took all the fun out of the trip.

Providing that the road conditions have not changed, it is a very easy drive into Chambers Pillar when dry.

Hi Joe,
We were there in August. No trailer. They had re-aligned the road over the worst hill since I was last there in the late 90's. No issues at all.

We went with our caravan in 2008 and met a couple of patches of loose sand soon after leaving Maryvale, but not deep; we were pleased to be pulling with the F250, not the auto 3 litre Patrol which may have had its work cut out in the sand. As said, the dunes towards th Pillar end of the drive had been capped and were quite firm. Other parts of the track were quite corrugated. As they have recently built a new campground for the Pillar, the road may well have been improved.

Chamber's Pillar is as easy as, in 2006.
I see no reason it would change.
We ran, from memory, 22 psi on gravel roads
Very corrugated, from the gate at the start for maybe 2 km. then a breeze.
The "Jump up" was a slow climb, with our Trak Shak, but an easy one
We dropped tyre pressures down to 15psi on the "small" sand dunes, thru the gate, and eat it up them up.

Great sunsets and sunrises, so take a good camera.

Thanks guys. Most of the time the warnings you see published are well over the top, and it seems to be so in this case, but it is always worth checking.

Thanks again.
