[QUOTE="Westaus, post: 77173, member: 2598"] jon m I think were you are getting a little confused with the edge of the map series as this is in a lighter shade. Most of the key highway roads are bitumen. They other smaller ones are in general good condition, but some heavy rain would make it another story. They are well sign posted before you enter onto them. So you should have some idea beforehand. Also wait a while and see anyone come through and ask what the conditions are like before proceeding, may have to wait a while though :( The look of their car/truck should give you an idea as well. With a 4wd you will be ok in most cases, a normal car is fine if no rain and the corrugations aren't too bad. Except for some side tracks and hills that were pure ironstone sheets (ripped tyres) a car would have gone to all the places we have been. May have taken a bit of bottom out here and there, and perhaps shaken a few bits loose but doable. Get a good WA tracks book as well, you should always have a good back up anyway, major roads are all marked and you can set your trip for fuel etc... Paid $1.77lt was the highest at Paynes Find FYI.
