Are You Contemplating Traveling the Canning Stock Route?
The Canning is a massive undertaking, and if you are not experienced, the best thing you can do is tag-along with someone who is.
With 35 years experience driving in the bush and more than 30 desert trips, David Olsen and the crew at Olsen’s 4WD tag-Along Tours can help you avoid some of the dramas, and assist you should you be unlucky enough to have some problems.
These gents got to experience first hand some of the challenges these tracks can present, and I thank them for posting this video.
Join us on our 23 Day Gunbarrel Highway and Canning Stock Route Adventure 22 July 2013.
