Thanks Gary, I wasn't sure what was happening down that end of the track.
I thought it was road easement; was it a fixed structure fence? Do you mean Boordarockin North Road?

Though visiting twice, I've never been camping at Barcooting Well, however if I did - I'd spend more time looking for another tank - I reckon there is another one there somewhere.

You can still get through to Mount Jackson Road from Lake Deborah Road at the eastern end - there is a No Through Road sign there.

Cheers
Alan

Looking for adventure.

Years ago when we went to Barcooting Well, we contacted the landowner and got permission to drive east along the fenceline from that intersection (Hunter & Boodarockin Nth) then out onto the track again.

That would have been 20 years ago though.

I've got some photos of Barcooting Well on a hard drive somewhere but darned if I can find them.
I'm glad I ain't too scared to be lazy

Alan, you are absolutely correct it should be Boodarockin North Road. I cant see how to edit my first post.

The fence has clearly been there a long time but it is a movable one so they can get machinery into the paddock.

We took that road through the Reserve you mentioned - its a great drive.
