Slashed the sidewall on one but didn't go down, probably just the rubber.
    Hey Plas,
    Yer it is a bit pricey buddy, Done it a few times now and the last time about 18 months ago it was $75 / vehicle.
    But it's a great drive and would pay it again i reckon. Not something you do every day.
    Might have to check out Warraweena though @ $8, thats awsome.

    Cheers Pete

    Both those places are now added to my must do list!! They look amazing!!
    A woodland in full color is awesome as a forest fire, in magnitude at least, but a single tree is like a dancing tongue of flame to warm the heart.

    Another good one Bel, Glass gorge at Blinman (Flinders Ranges SA), maps and keys from Alpanna station (Blinman) $55 i think it was, as good as Skytrek with no boring bits, but Skytrek has the better views.

    skytrek has changed slightly, bit of a write up on it on the web, something to do with land royalties and costs etc.look into it, as one of the steep sections is now bypassed.
