You can by water. 

I’d say it was caused by idiots tearing up the tracks on the way through to coral bay. Hasn’t been open through that way for a lot of years. 

 Same reason Warroora dont like you driving through to Coral bay, keeps the idiots and freeloaders under control. Have a look at what Ningaloo station have had to do with locked gates everywhere

 I know the dog shooters use that track frequently as we spoke to them a couple of years back. And yep was up there one time when a group of blokes had forced the gate open and had driven up there a ways. Don't blame the station owners for getting pissed off.

 the road is not gazetted so private road and not in good condition . The gate is kept shut to stop people getting into trouble (lots of backpackers)and having to go help em out as well as illegal camping .

Some maps show a road that runs through but don’t believe it.

If you go back 40 years it was kept shut so the old owners had cape Farquhar to themselves!
