Welcome back to our fourth episode with Garry Riggs from Lakefield Station in the Territory. When we last left Garry, he had just wrapped up his time in the stock camp at Blina Station. But the end of one chapter marked the beginning of another. Garry found himself working in mining exploration, and trust us, the adventures only got wilder from there. In this episode, Garry takes us through another round of jaw-dropping stories from teaming up with a Dutch mercenary to the unexpected experience of accidentally smoking weed and being abandoned out bush. And if that’s not enough, he recounts the harrowing day he survived both a helicopter crash and a light aircraft engine failure.See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.

Garry Riggs (Part 4) - Mercenaries and mid-air emergencies

True stories from the Australian Outback, told by the people who live them. Meet the men and women who live and work on some of Australia&rsquo;s most remote cattle stations. There are tales of mustering, stock camps, working dogs, rogue cattle and hard bloody yakka, but also the fun of a bush wedding or kicking back at a rodeo. There&rsquo;s the simple wonder of living in an amazing landscape, but also the downside: the ravages of flood, fire and drought. And always there&rsquo;s the inherent danger of isolation &ndash; times when the Flying Doctor came to the rescue, but also times when lives have been tragically cut short. These compelling true-life stories show what outback life is really like &ndash; and why many wouldn&rsquo;t live anywhere else.
