Has anyone travelled the OTL from Madura to
Israelite Bay in last 12mths
Is the track passable without too much paint damage

We visited
Toolinna Cove and
Point Culver and then travelled down through the
Cape Arid National Park to
Israelite Bay in late March and encountered plenty of overgrown tracks. There obviously has been fires there a few years ago and the mallee and banksia regrowth along some of the tracks is amazing in
places. Like driving through the hedgerows in Britain only much much narrower. I don't know about further east. If you are worried about paint scratches I'd be investing in some of the stuff Mick O mentions a few posts down
Cheers

Hi tuck,
Yes the track is passable but if you don't want to travel along overgrown tracks with scratchy bushes then this trip isn't for you.
cheers

Did
Esperance to Madura last October. Followed the OTL from the start of the Baxter Cliffs. Very tight in
places. Had to get out of the car at one stage to look for the track. It was three feet infornt of my Car!
Didnt get one scratch on the car that didnt buff out.
