      Yes, and he chuckles to himself and shakes his bowed head, in its worn old cowboy hat, when he thinks about that little trick he once played, on a lone camper. He’d come up on the man who never even knew he was there - city dweller - so close if he’d been a buck, he’d have been plugged before he knew it. He had snuck into his tent and shot him - a picture of the man, that is - with the man’s own camera. He gets a little kick out of thinking how the man must’ve been surprised when he found out and couldn’t figure out how it happened on a lonely old Gold Rush trail in the Bush, a place forgotten by everybody... well, almost everybody

    Omg that would be so freaky from the photographers end.
    I'm imagining it from Button Man's perspective too though. I mean if he knew this guy was trying to take his pic for days, it's really the ultimate troll move to sneak in and take a pics of the photographer with his own camera instead.
    I can't help but kinda laugh a little bit. Well played, Button Man.

    My mum grew up in this area, just across the border into NSW, and I just asked her if she knew about the Button Man. She super nonchalantly said yes, and that the Alpine region (of both VIC and NSW) are incredibly remote with some "bad people" living there (her words). She says she doesn't remember much about the Button Man, but she is certain that she has heard the name. I'm going to ask my grandma about him as well to see if she remembers anything.
    I'll provide an update as soon as I learn anything.
    Edit: Turns out mum read something on the Button Man because it had to do with the area she grew up in. I did ask my grandma, but she looked at me quizzically as she had left the area /after/ he became well known. That said, she did mention that due to the remoteness of the area, it would attract people who didn't want to be found/left alone.

      I also forgot to mention the other urban legend in the area, known as the "child buyer," who would (as the name would suggest) buy children as farmers would cattle. Apparently parents would tell their children that they would sell them to the child buyer if they misbehaved. Not gonna lie, it has some seriously creep undertones to it...

    I think this is the cause of some deaths, alongside the mountain itself and it’s fauna.

    Back in the 1990s, I would often go bushwalking and camping in the Alpine National Park. But there are some simple rules that must be followed and people are always advised but are often ignored. 1. Plan your trip and fill out an "Intentions Form" leave this with a trusted person. 2. Fill out the book that is placed along walking tracks. It is easy to get lost. This happened to me once, I thought I was on the right track but I wasn't. I used my map reading skills to get back to my camping ground. Back then the GPS was new and chewed up batteries. The guy at the Melbourne Map Shop advised me against buying one. If I was going bushwalking again I would probably have a modern GPS plus a map and compass.
    I would put the majority disappearances to lack of knowledge and filing a proper intentions report. Weather can change very fast without warning. On one visit It went from 30C sunny to misty and freezing.
    That being said the Alpine Nationa Park is so beautiful and if you have a chance then visit.

If you want to be outdoors, do so with other people, sharing the great experience, and always be watching each other. It is not just protection in the dark of night, but also salvation if you have a critical medical emergency. Also have the best friend a camp could ask for: a vigilant dog or two. They have guarded us in our sleep for generations, and you will find far fewer people have ever been killed sleeping outdoors when they had dogs with them.

    What people may not know is that in Australia it's standard practice to give and get "We're OK" communications regularly. For example - If you tell someone you'll arrive at 6PM and don't show up, they'll go looking. There are no exceptions because the bush can be dangerous. There's something quite strange about so many people who know the bush and who are so well organized going missing at all. "Bush people" living in the bush are generally OK, but not always.
    The high country isn't "impassable" by Australian standards but it's often potentially difficult and pretty strenuous when climbing and descending. You can also get snow and of summer heat, both potentially very risky. The country is no real problem for an experienced bushwalker, but tricky if you're not. One fall or slip can incapacitate you, and then you're in serious trouble. Getting lost isn't a good option; if you do, you can wander for days.
    Word of advice for foreigners - If you come out here, pay attention to all the safety tips, don't go off on your own, and be careful, or you might wind up on Bedtime Stories.

    The Button man just sounds like a misunderstood Bush Man. He probably realised that the photographer was there to try & get a photo of him & so decided to play a prank on him. You can tell he wasn't malicious as he only took HALF of his waster supply. He left the photographer with all his equipment & left him with enough water & food to get back to a population centre. I imagine there's plenty of people who have just had nice chats with him. It also seems as tho he leaves the carved button & other carved trinkets as things for people to find on their walks as little keepsakes. Sounds like a nice, misunderstood bloke to me :)

    I spent a lot of time there over 2 decades ago, came across bush hermits a few times. They always have a dog with them, they keep their distance and dont engage. One time though we came across an old man who had claimed to have walked a few months all the way from Sydney and was heading to Melbourne to see his sick brother. Was near the wonangata valley. He was a nice old guy. Looked really suprised to see us and obviously had not spoken to anyone in awhile. Another thing was I heard a warning of a river that runs through the centre of the wonangata valley in the most remote part. Warning was dont cross the river/stream. This area is only accessible by walking or horse. Apparently in the 60's someone part of a group decided to challenge that warning and set his tent up just across the stream. When he woke up one of his legs was missing, apparently cleanly cut/sliced as though surgically, strange aswel was the leg wasnt bleeding and he survived. Could be a story. But we didnt test it. Another story was in the 70s a man suddenly grabbed his rifle and left his group running into the bush, as others in the group spun around they saw a black furred creature quickly disappear into the bush ahead of him -some that saw the creature reckoned it almost looked like a black panther. He wasnt heard of or seen again for a couple of weeks though he was searched for. Then suddenly he appeared back white as a sheet and clothes torn, he walked in to the main camp said nothing to anyone, handed his rifle in and left on foot for the nearest road. Never to be heard from again. I heard later that in ww2 there was a US air unit stationed in that region or thereabouts and they had a male and female panther as mascots. End of the war they were ordered to put them down but apparently some of them couldn't bring themselves to it so they went out to the edge of where they thaught was isolated enough for the cats to just disappear and live out there lives. But who knows maybe they bred and well life has a way of surviving so inbred black panthers isnt in the way of impossibilities. These are stories told to us by older guys in that region round a fire and they were told them by those that came before.

    I had once thought about doing a walkabout in Australia. I even thought about the route I would probably take. I was, if I was well prepared and trained, go from Fremantle to either Sidney or Melbourne. One of those preparations was to read Tracks by Robin Davidson(she trekked across the Outback with four camels) and In A Sunburnt Country by Bill Bryson. Both books gave me an idea of what I would see if I go Down Under. The stories of the disappearance of hikers and campers was and still is something to take into consideration. There were stories about people who go into the Bush country and totally get lost there. Even if or when I do go, I will be well equipped. Water will be more important than food. Self defense will be just as important. More important is to go to as many places where there are people along the trail and get as much information as possible about the route in case there are changes such as weather or wildfires.
    Australia, and almost anywhere else worth visiting, as long as one is equipped and respectful of the environment and the people there.
    Great story. Keep them coming.
    Stay safe.

My clothes and gear are dark or natural colors. I generally avoid other people where possible.i carry bear spray and have occasionally carry small caliber hand guns.

    A few corrections to this great video. David Prideaux was the Govenor of BARWON prison, not Barton prison. Conrad Whiltock's car was found in a layby on the road going up to the summit of Mt BULLER , not Mt Butler. Niels Becker did not intend going into the Wonnangatta Valley. His proposed route was further to the west, keeping on top of the the main range, ending near Mt Stirling, adjacent to Mt Buller, (where Conrad Whitlock disappeared. ) Police made contact with and interviewed "The Button Man" in connection with the Hill/Clay disappearance, but ruled him out of the investigation after the interviews concluded. People looking at this video may also be interested in video's about the unsolved 1917/18 double murder in the Wonnangatta Valley, that have been posted on You Tube.

    FYI being in this state, it's not highly populous in the high country but ABSOLUTELY CERTAINLY NOT remote. But has numerous eccentric old people who rarely go a few miles from home. Not even CLOSELY remote to even where I grew up, let alone the outback. Very strange driving in the outback, extremely flat, can see houses for 15km like nearly 10 miles away. Where I GREW UP, there were various unsolved murders, mostly being some city guy chasing an ex girlfriend to murder her on some road out the back of our town. I remember a woman in the town telling my mum about the cops questioning her if she saw anything because a girl was apparently abducted by an ex boyfriend and thought to be murdered. A cult out their accidentally killed someone. Never mind the shenanigans aboriginals got up to. Openly threatening to kill people and attempting to. My mums aboriginal friend had the back of her house crushed by stolen earthmoving equipment. Ex boyfriend of her daughter crushed the daughters bedroom IN A TOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DAY. Dumb bastard didn't even realise she wasn't home. Old momma was having a nap in the front room and the house vibrations woke her.

    Apparently the old couple with the drone was solved, another man camping in the area got into an altercation with them, then murdered them and burned their stuff. I remember he was caught because someone recognized his truck, and the cops found the drone inside. The bodies were buried a good distance from the camp. That's what I remember anyways.

    It is easy to get lost out there though, my ex partner and i lost our car on a walk once, had to walk/climb up the side of a mountain to get a good view of the area to find the car. One of the most scary things ive ever taken part in, we had no equipment so one step wrong and it could have been the end. Also good luck finding someone out there, its a huge area and there are so many places you could fall and never be found
