Trilby Station - I'm intrigued by your comment that "it won't cause a problem". I'm planning to head your way in a couple of weeks (after all previous attempts have been thwarted by road closures), and so have been monitoring the river levels and SES warnings & updates very closely. The map of Current NSW SES warnings says "Bourke – Wilcannia Road may close between Louth and Tilpa". Do you really believe that this is unlikely, based on your past experience and the current situation?
