The Wapet Road, also known as the Kidson Track, is an outback track in the Pilbara region of Western Australia.[1] Since 2014, both the part of the road that is within the native title lands of the Nyangumarta people (that is, Nyangumarta country) and the adjacent part between Nyangumarta country and Great Northern Highway are called Nyangumarta Highway. The name of the road was derived from early tracks cut by the oil exploration company WAPET.[2] Despite predominately passing through desert, birdwatchers and others access the track notwithstanding its difficult traverse.[3] It approximately follows 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, and continues for 621 kilometres south east to the Kunawaritji community on the Canning Stock Route. It passes through country known as the Western Desert cultural bloc and more specifically the Martu Determined Native Title Area. Parts of the Kidson track also pass through other native title areas including Nyungamarta and Ngurra. There is a separation of the Kidson Track from the Wapet Road as separate parts of the same track on one source,[4] however another does not make the distinction.[5] See also{{portal-inline|Australian roads}}References1. ^{{cite web|url=https://4wda.org.au/mce_doc.php?id=69|title=Nyangumarta Highway (Kidson Track) Permit Brochure|edition=First|date={{date|March 2015|ISO}}|access-date={{date|18 Mar 2019|ISO}}|df=dmy-all}} {{coord|-22.337621|124.739567|format=dms|display=title}}{{WesternAustralia-geo-stub}}2. ^{{cite news |url=http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article105868249 |title=AMENDMENT IS DEFEATED IN HARRIS POLL |newspaper=The Canberra Times |volume=40, |issue=11,291 |location=Australian Capital Territory, Australia |date=20 October 1965 |accessdate=22 March 2019 |page=24 |via=National Library of Australia}} 3. ^http://pandora.nla.gov.au/pan/123182/20101115-1936/birdingwa.iinet.net.au/birds/species/australian_bustard.html 4. ^Map of Wapet Road in Western Australia - Bonzle Digital Atlas of Australia 5. ^Hema Maps (2007) Great Desert Tracks of Australia Map Pack, North West Sheet. {{ISBN|978-1-86500-165-4}} Edition: 4.
