Tackling the Madigan Line across the Simpson Desert 2023 - Journey to The Heart of Australia 3

We finally start out on the Madigan line! 285km through some of the most remote terrain in Australia. Crossing hundreds of sand dunes, stunning clay plans and beautiful savannahs these are two of the most spectacular days we have had on our adventures.

Those are our tracks heading down the Colson track 30/4/23, it was slow going 1st and 2nd almost the whole length down to the French line.

We went past Colson on 23/4 so just before you went down.

If you should desire, move as much weight as possible toward the front of the vehicle (within reason) water is best carried in the centre, if you have a twin cab remove the rear seat and secure your water containers there. Ideally the rear tyre pressure should be about 8 psi minimum above the front, usually more, if you have a lot of weight over or behind the rear wheels with the wrong tyre pressure you will be riding a bucking bronc, as you experienced, or you could spend a kings ransom on a suspension upgrade, enjoyed your video, thanks 😊

Check out our other vids and you’ll see how we packed the car.

A bit slack that you dont mention the madigan camp numbers as you go past each & show the markers.

Thanks for watching

Great video guys. What maps are you using? Keep the great content coming 🍺

[@fastaustralianadventures]

Thank you! We use a Garmin Overlander, which has built in Hema Maps. The scale on those isn’t great though so it also has what I think is openmaps at a closer level of detail. We also carry paper Hema Maps.
