AllOffroad 4x4 | Simpson Desert | Madigan Line & Hay River Part 1 ALLOFFROAD [2022] @AlloffroadAu | Uploaded September 2022 | Updated October 2024, 2 minutes ago.
On this Simpson Desert 4wd Adventure, we are only two cars, Steve in his Landcruiser Troop Carrier and myself with my 13-year-old daughter Summer in the Landcruiser 105. In this episode, we are making our way towards the Simpson Desert and Explorer along the Oodnadatta Track. I always wanted to sleep inside one of the Old Siding Stations, and my wish came true this time. Old Peak Telegraph station is something I drove past many times (as it's a 25km detour), but this time we managed to explore it, and I can say it's well worth the bumpy and corrugated ride. We also check in to Mt Dare and Visit Old Andado Station before starting the Madigan Line.

Our guide also covers practical advice for making your desert journey as comfortable as possible, from selecting the right roof racks and sleeping gear to choosing appropriate clothing. We emphasize the importance of respecting the environment with segments on UHF desert etiquette, desert toilet practices, and how to maintain personal hygiene in arid conditions.
Learn about the necessities of camp life, from managing campfires safely to the advantages of adding an awning or extra driving lights to your setup. Our guide also navigates through the technical aspects of desert driving, including tire choices, pressure settings, and the debate between manual vs automatic transmissions, as well as when to use high or low range gears.
We don’t stop there; the video includes tips on throttle control, how to handle chopped up dunes, driving on corrugated roads, and the best practices for towing a camper trailer. We also tackle the practicalities of dealing with rubbish responsibly and the precautions for encountering dangerous wildlife.
