I did a club trip last year out through Bourke, Thargomindah, Innamincka, Birdsville, Birdsville Track, Maree, Nth Flinders, Strzelecki Track, Cameron Corner, White Cliffs and back to Bourke. We had 9 vehicles in total. We went out to Big Red to have a look at it, at the time Eyre Creek was still flooded and Big Red was as far out as you could go legally. Big Red itself was easy to climb on the eastern side but it was very soft on the western side coming back up. It is recommended now to travel from East to West over the sand hills through the Simpson Desert.
