- Conditions worsen in both dry and wet weather, creating limited grip for tires and increasing the risk of becoming stranded.
- There is no mobile phone reception in the area.
- If you become stuck, arranging recovery will be difficult and costly.
Ensure your vehicle is a high-clearance 4WD with low-range capability before attempting this route. Plan ahead and avoid unnecessary risk.

It is never safe to drive, ride or walk through flood waters.
