In this final episode Sophie and I enjoy a fantastic bush camp, I trek my last day on the trail and then go on a mini-mission to get back to my 4WD. We also look out how we've been helped on our respective camel journeys by the locals.
In this series I join up with my friend Sophie Matterson towards the end of her 13 month solo camel expedition across Australia with camels she caught from the wild and trained herself.
I spend five days on the trail with Sophie (4 Episodes) as she treks along the QLD/NSW border. This is the home stretch of her 4000km+ journey from the west coast of Australia to the east coast.
Sophie and I pay our respects to the Kooma, Bigambal and Kamilaroi Aboriginal people, the traditional owners of the land we trek through.
Thank you Frank and the other locals who assist Sophie and I on this part of the trip.
You can find out more about Sophie and follow the remainder of her journey here;

Sophie will hopefully release a book and film about her trip in future so please consider following her to find out the release details.
Thank you sooooooo much Sophie for having me along!!!!!!
Please feel free to check out my other youtube videos, particularly my Surviving the Great Barrier Reef series. This was the dugout canoe expedition that I was on my way back from when I filmed this trip with Sophie. The canoe build and pre-departure video’s are already up and I’m about to start editing the actual expedition footage. It was epic and the hardest expedition I've done.

Brilliant short series Mike. Thank you for the behind the scenes account of Sophie’s trek. I ordered her book and it’s in the mail. Just got back from a week camel trek in the Flinders and have totally fallen in love with these gracious “ships of the desert.” I’d love to trek like Sophie and do a long trip with an experienced cameleer one day. 🐪 🐫 🏜 ☀️

Great job Mike, touching base with Sophie. Very interesting. I have recently watched Robyn Davidson's trip on screen. Also am getting her book. Camels are just fantastic animals. ps I wonder why Sophie doesn't have a dog with her as a companion member.

Thank you for your kindness and your interest in camels. You are very wonderful people. I would like to tell you that I am very interested in saving wild camels in Australia. I would like to inquire about their whereabouts. I would like a lot of them.

So you mentioned that the camels came from Afghanistan. When and why?
@OutbackMike
@OutbackMike 3 місяці тому
They were introduced in the 1840’s from Afghanistan to help explore inland Australia (Afghan cameleers came with them). They also enabled construction of the first telegraph line to cross Australia.

what ever we do to others will be done to us, Are animals liking walking in your control?
@OutbackMike
@OutbackMike 2 роки тому
Yes. I think they like it. If they wanted to escape from Sophie they could. They see her as the group leader and prefer to have her looking after them so they choose to stay with her. The hobbles might look mean but then don’t hurt them and help them stay closer to Sophie overnight so it’s in there best interest to have them on.
