Beginning of June - Useless
Beginning of June - Useless Loop road was excellent, windmill to Tin hill was pretty badly corrugated, Tin hill to Point was good.
Also had similar conditions when we were also there back in March

Track.
The track to Steep Point is closed all this month for repair.
Not sure if it is open yet but will be for next month.
Looks like you will be one of the first to use it so I would say there will be no probs, lucky you lol.
Just hope a 4X4 club don't go through there before you do, they seem to have this thing about not letting tyres down & trying to bounce their way over the hills leaving ruts & boggy patches......
Cheers & Stay safe

You'd think a 4WD club would appreciate the need and do the righty by letting their tyres down, rsoles.
