Muster -Minderoo Station. Onslow.
By chance near our camp they were mustering cattle, well, we
followed up behind in our ute. Those of you that know us, know we would love to
do a cattle muster on horseback or motor bikes, this was as close as we have
come. The two Jillaroos were out front on horseback, (Hey, there is no dust up
front), the boys & men were doing all the work at the back with motor
bikes, Quad bikes, bull buggy, utes and the helicopter was rounding up the
loose cattle to bring to the mob. We followed along for about 3 hours and I
have to say I loved every minute of it, unfortunately eventually we lost them
in the bush, so didn’t get to see the cattle yarded. A fantastic experience,
which I would love to take part in. A lot of the stations don’t use horses
anymore, so it was excellent to see them!!!
