Has any one been up there recently?
What are the conditions like to get up to the cape?
And most importantly are the tailor on yet?

Thanks in advance.

Damon.

We got back Saturday.
Ngkala Rocks was still passable late last week but plenty of people having trouble, I had to let the tyres down to 20 and get a run up after getting through the bog hole.
You cant get around on the ocean side, a fairly new V8 Cruiser had rolled down an embankment and the sand was giving away right up to the edge of the track at that point, only a matter of time before someone else comes to grief and then they will have to close it.

Tailor are being caught in a gutter just before Ngkala Rocks, also just South of Eli and up near Dundubara most of them are bearly legal though.
Jew in some gutters out front of Happy Valley. We got one targetting tailor saw another guy filletting one.
