    Went up there years ago, hot dry and dusty, can't remember what the surface was now red or black, but that black stuff is bloody awful wet, travel about ten metres and the wheel arches are full, jammed between the the tyres and the body, and slippery as buggery too.
    We encountered this up near Dirambandi and got stuck for a week, not a good experience (floods and we couldn't leave town, everything was about a foot underwater and you just didn't know where the road was).
    Enjoy the trip.
    Stupidity kills. Absolute stupidity kills absolutely.

    Aahh, the black soil. You stick to it in the dry and it'll stick to you in the wet.
