There is a major river crossing: Wilberforce River. You need a 4WD ute and low river levels. Not possible to cross after rain. Can check with the farmer about river levels and crossing beforehand. Worth getting out and walking the river crossing first to check water depth and/or looking at different possible crossing spots. Follow 4WD track through station and turn right pass area of buildings. Follow rough 4WD track along Rakia river then Mathias river. There is a small bluff that the 4WD track goes down but otherwise you dont have to stick on the track. Go through a gate. Park by the Chimera stream. Cross the Chimera stream on foot and navigate up the slope to plot. Try to follow deer tracks to improve ease of travel.
