Default Re: Roads in the old days Australia

We have similar 4 wheel drive back roads here in the States in the national parks. The Toyotas shown in the videos given by Updraught would not fit. Only small Jeeps are allowed. You have to get a reservation a year in advance. We watched some Jeeps negotiate some tight places in Canyon Land. The switchback turns are too tight to turn in so you have to back to the next tight turn. The group we watched were going to camp out for a few days. You have to carry everything out, even poop. Much more regulated and controlled.
