  • In the search for gold sometimes we encounter a few obstacles along the way. This trip was like no other what was supposed to be a simple trip into a new area to search for new gold deposits, things quickly turn for the worse. The overgrowth of an old prospectors trail and heavy winter rains suddenly have me in survival mode wondering whether I'll make it out alive.

    Going through the thick is hard going, even for the strong willed a couple of days of it is demoralising. The far south it's virtually horizontal bush. Many people simply don't appreciate how thick it can get, not possible to even cut your way through and I carry a 4 foot brush hook with me.

    Hey Levi. Watch all your video's every week and I look forward to them. Thanks for sharing. Even the tough stuff is interesting and shows it isn't always easy doin what you do. Just a thought. When in PNG going bush, my friends would carry their large bushknives (machetes) for exactly that type of country it's amazing what they can clear away. Not sure if it's legal here in Aussie but it would be a bit safer.
