Wapet Road

Wapet Road

Wapet RoadAlso known as Kidson Track is an outback track in the Pilbara region of Western Australia

It follows approximately the Canning Basin boundary in the Great Sandy Desert from a starting point 45 km south west of the Sandfire Roadhouse on the Great Northern Highway that continues some 500 kilometres south east to the Kunawaritji community on the Canning Stock Route.

It passes through country known as Western Desert (Australia) and more specifically the Martu Determined Native title Area.

There is a separation of the Kidson Track from the Wapet Road as separate parts of the same track on one source - [ [http://maps.bonzle.com/c/a?a=p&p=174068&cmd=sp Map of Wapet Road in Western Australia - Bonzle Digital Atlas of Australia ] ] - however another does not make the distinction [ Hema Maps (2007) "Great Desert Tracks of Australia Map Pack", "North West Sheet". ISBN 13: 9781865001654 Edition: 4. Scale: 1:1 250 000 ]
