Gday...
I travelled from
Cunnamulla through
Eulo,
Yowah,
Toompine to
Quilpie in 2010. Although the road was only about single lane it was sealed all the way despite the maps showing a fair bit of unsealed road from the Yowah/
Eulo Road turoff to south of
Toompine.
This year I am going out to
Thargomindah and was then going to go straight up from
Thargomindah to
Quilpie.
I had heard the road north of
Thargomindah to
Toompine is now all sealed. Has anyone travelled it recently and confirm or otherwise?
Cheers -
John

Hi
John. At September last year there was a sealed section at the southern end followed by a section being prepared for sealing. From there until south of
Toompine the road was dirt, gravel or sand but in good condition and
well maintained. About 35 km south of
Toompine, I think at the southern boundary of the
Quilpie shire, the sealed road started again and continued right through to
Quilpie. It is an easy drive. But I would expect that the unsealed road would quickly become impassable if there was much rain.
Cheers,
Kevin
