Some 15km along McIntyre Rd a well known area for Carpentarian Grasswrens, there is a small rough jump up here to the east of the road where the Carpies can be found. Apparently though the road is now closed to the public from the T junction at the Barkly Hwy.

Camp rating 8 if or when the area is opened to the public again, there is a place to get off the road here
