Thanks, but that isn't for me. I can handle a couple days of following cattle, but that is it.
Quite an interesting article though!!

I sent the article to a friend down under.Here is what he had to say. :)

"Ha, Billy Little, I met him back in the early eighties, and we were commenting on why people were still using Herefords. Well that changed, Billy didn't, he’s still full of ****. Good bloke honest as any drover!!!!!!! Josh and Emma know him quite well, he got one of their horses and took with him for a few months, but he damaged his front cannon bone coming out of a flooded creek. He has a sizeable lump now, I got him at home with me( that's the horse not BILLY) hes a real good horse but has got some real issues with mud. So I think we didn't get the full story on what went on. But as for going with Bill, Josh won’t go anywhere near backpackers. after his experiences in the kimberleys with them. Me i’m burnt out buggered and useless, an embarrassment to my saddle. Hows the polar ice cap down to the big muddy yet? "
