Camping is arranged by the bash organisers, and is included in the Bash price.  Please don't arrange with the venue for camping directly.

WARNING
The best road at the moment to come in to Wartrail is the DR03214 2km outside of Barkly East (attached red route - see first post Reedsdell Route.xls). The DR03214 turnoff at New England (47km from Lady Grey) is VERY ROUGH in dry weather & VERY MUDDY in wet weather. I’ll keep you posted as to the condition of the roads as we get closer to the event. There is NO CELLPHONE reception at Reedsdell – closest is 15km before Reedsdell.

Throttle Jockey has given warning about a nasty drift which has been packed full of rocks around a km after the police station (S30.75618 E28.36166) heading towards mt Fletcher from Naude's Nek which will be a nasty surprise at speed.
