Situated about 1140 km north from Adelaide, and 80 kilometres north west of Innamincka on the Coongie Lakes Track is Kudriemitchie Outstation.

The outstation has been renovated by several working parties from the Club, and is available for Club Members and other Clubs to use (at least one member is to be financial member of the South Australian Association of Four Wheel Drive Clubs (SAAFWDC)). All arrangements to be made via the Club's Trips Coordinator. Refer to the User Info.

Why Kudriemitchie and TLCC?

It was during 1994 that a group of TLCC members were travelling in the area and it was discovered that the future of the Outstation looked bleak. Due to vandal attacks and the ravages of time, it's condition was such that Kidman Pastoral Co. was planning to demolish the building. This prompted some members of the club to approach DEHAA and Kidmans to suggest that the Club restore the building. This was agreed to by all parties and the first working bee was held in 1995.

Quote from the sign near the building:

Inside the rear door, an informal notice states
THIS BUILDING REPAIRED BY TOYOTA CLUB SA IN CONJUNCTION WITH D.E.N.R. PLEASE RESPECT.
Both signs acknowledge that much time and effort has already been directed to providing a facility which is valued by the three parties concerned with its continuing existence. As members of the T.L.C.C. (S.A.) or guests, you are welcome to share in what it has to offer and play a part in its preservation.
