Sky Trek Closed [or closing]??
« on: May 18, 2012, 09:00:01 AM »
Currently in Broken Hill & was considering heading back into the Flinders but heard through the grapevine that Sky Trek had closed?

Apparently they "gifted" some land to a 3rd party & now those people have re-nigged on giving them access..effectivly meaning that Sky Trek can no longer function.

So, whats the story? Is it true?

This thread may inform you a bit. http://forums.overlander.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=73060

It is open, sort of. Some of the old bits have been closed but new tracks have been opened.
