As the rain cell passes through the Kimberley region here is this mornings update from our friends at Mt Barnett Roadhouse

For our guests safety as well as minimising the risk of vehicle damage, our advise to current travelers is to "Stay Put" until road conditions improve.

For those getting ready to start their trip in the coming days be vigilant in checking the most up to date road conditions

Rain has hit Mt Barnett. The unseasonal rain front has finally hit the Gibb with over 30mm falling overnight at Mt Barnett.

Whilst our aloe vera is loving it - our roads are not.

Manning Gorge Campground and access to Manning Falls is now CLOSED until the access road is deemed safe for travel.

If you are on the Gibb and camped in a safe place, please stay where you are and wait for the rain to pass and the roads to dry. Unnecessary travel on wet roads is dangerous.

So sit back, relax and enjoy the rain!

For advice and updates, feel free to give us a call on 9191 7007.
Mt Barnett Roadhouse is still open and trading as usual 8am - 4pm.

The Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) has warned of potential rainfall from Sunday evening into next week with heavy, unseasonal rainfall forecast, with totals of 100mm–150mm per day possible in some areas of the West and Central Kimberley. The rain band is expected to move gradually east between Monday and Wednesday.

There will be some impacts on roads. Visitors and travellers should be advised to prepare for potential short-term isolation and to not drive through flooded roads or creeks.

If you are travelling in and around these areas, please stay off closed roads or roads significantly affected by rainfall as this is for your safety and to prevent damage to the road. As stated prepare to move to locations where you are prepared to remain isolated for some time.

Great news for those doing the Gibb early in the season. The river level at Mount Barnett was always a contributing factor for the Gibb River Road opening…

The Barnett Crossing is looking a little different this year.

For those who have traveled the Gibb before know the Barnett Crossing is usually a sandy crossing with the potential to have deep and boggy spots.

To aid the movement of grading teams along the road, Main Roads have used gravel to raise the level of the crossing.

Whilst the depth marker on the tree has the depth at 1.4m, the current depth on the gravel crossing is around 500mm.

Please take is slowly when crossing the river, and remember to treat all river crossings as a single lane.

Manning Gorge Campground and Manning Falls access opens Monday 28th April.

See you all soon! 😁
