Went down the"Dunns track" about 12 days ago was fine suspect it would be little different on the holland. Plan b was to come back the holland if Balladonia to Mt Ragged was closed but it also was ok

dunns track or to be more exact the survey line near dunns track is fairly different to Holland track

I cant see the holland track would be different to normal with dry sections with deepish but firm based bog holes with chicken tracks around the deepest ones

you might get some more recent replys tomorrow as its usually popular on long weekends

Hi John,

No we can't give an idea of current track conditions though we suggest that you contact the T.L.C.C. who are the caretakers of the track and ask them what the current track conditions are.

Enjoy your trip and take your time to complete the journey.

Cheers,
Wayne & Sally.

drove the track from coolgardie to hyden on the wkend of the 22nd Oct and it was all smooth sailing but in saying that we just had 44mm of rain at home which is only a few hours north of the track these last few days so I'd say it will be a little wet now
