Hey, not sure if this is true 😅 but apparently the natives of the Pilliga would actually hunt down other people or possible tribes so it was pretty dangerous but i just heard that from a freind.
@@zegrainbowpog2805 Yes I think tribes did fight among themselves and I am keen to hear some stories of what the indigenous people feel about the land as the origins of these places with such feelings always have some Dream Time stories that qualify the energy in my short experience with such places....
May I ask what property it is called or what the owners name is because I’m allowed hunting on over 15 big property’s and was wondering if you are one one
That's what I like about Miller's channel, the variance's in his wildlife content keep things fresh, and never boring. From 20 plus ft salty's, to Cobras and the search for the Thylacine, and much, much more. However I see it, Miller, young as he may well be, has more knowledge than a lot of others who claim to have expertise. Keep it going, and stay safe young gun. Edinburgh, Scotland.
Thank you my brother - i appreciate the kind words and support - I am giving it a crack for sure - Off to Borneo and Komodo next week so can't wait for that adventure
@@MillerWilsonExtreme places both. Beautiful countries, with deadly animal inhabitants. I admire ur drive, and I can't help but see that ur future looks bright; blindingly bright. Stay safe. 🏴
Anyone naive enough to still believe Bigfoot and Thylacine exist is not knowledgeable, or is deliberately misinforming the audience. An expert is not required to deduce literally thousands of Bigfoot and Thylacine would be needed to sustain a genetically viable population. Tricks are for kids.
A mate of mine got lost in the Pilliga just off the main highway to Coonabarabran, dogs got off and doing the right thing tracked them down. 3 days later he managed to hear a truck off in the distance and get himself back to his ute. You could see the fear in his eyes when he told us what happened. My dad's uncle also ran the last Cypress mill in Gwabebar, Tommy Underwood, great man with some incredible stories.
I'm from Melbourne city and I must say the pilliga is along with min min lights Australia's most hectic regions The pilliga is infamous for Yowie tales however the Yowies are able to spot the infrared lights that the trailcams use to film PS if you had one in camp you will find it impossible to get a Yowie on film. Unlike us they are true forest survivers that know all there is too know about the Australian bush. You do know that pigs often go in numbers to waterholes for safety. In my opinion as long as you have charged trail cams you shouldn't have a Yowie scare. Pps I assure you young man I'm glad for you that you didn't have an encounter with the hairy man because most people are never the same after having a run in with one of these beings. Great job going out to the Pilliga miller Cheers keep up the great work....
They were just apes, humans back then had no concept of different species.. even to this day human beings believe in all kinds of mythological fairy tales, from twitter posts to real life 'encounters' its all mumbo jumbo.
Rubbish..the ired LED only turn on when the camera is activated and filming..the Passive ired detection system which is separate.. reacts to heat sources in front of the camera..note the word "passive"..🤣
@@Asecretcountry666 That may be true but whatever the reason they know that if any living thing activates the I red by activating the camera they can somehow see it maybe the just react to when it has been activated by something and then know to stay out of that area I'm not sure how they do it but I know that when people that put up trail cameras seem to get Verry little sightings. It is possible that they might be able to see it when it's activated passive to our eyes yes but do you have a Yowies eye sight after many years of night vision I'm sure they would see far better than us. I'm not a believer I'm a knower. Who knows what they can do but I wouldn't underestimate them that's for sure.
Many truck drivers in the 80's to 90's were very weary of stopping at night anywhere along the Newell HWY between Coona and Narrarbri along the Pilliga. Worked as a diesel mechanic back then and 75% of truckies where petrified of the place. Talked to the "the princess" at a truck stop and that myth has been blown out of all proportions, her name was Clare and yeah a bit eccentric but sane. As for anything else, just stories
Heard the same. I was driving interstate and ran into many stock haulers on that road. One bloke said he had a full size sheep snatched out of the side of the trailer at night while parked up, he said there was blood up 8ft on the trailer and half a leg left on the ground. He got outa there quick he said.
Got stalked by a weird entity there in the early 2000s at night. Had red eyes and I experienced memory loss over a period of ten minutes. I did not sleep for over a month after the incident. Don’t mess around there.
Have you considered hypnosis to help clarify what you remember? You need someone skilled enough to assist you in healing the traumatic effects of the sighting, and ethical enough to ask questions without bias so the truth can stand .
Remember watching you when I was a kid and when you were a kid you made me want to explore the wild and it makes me appreciate how beautiful nature is keep up the hard work my friend!
I'm impressed ! Bit if a old bushie myself, but I for one would avoid the Pilliga like a plague, unless you got good backup. Non the less you have nads of titanium young man ! Stay safe.
I am an Australian Aboriginal from Cape York Peninsula Queensland I never heard of the Pilliga before But I heard Slim Dusty sang the song called Pilliga thats how i know the Pilliga today thanks for sharing this video♥️👌
Family was chased in our car by the Min Min lights on the Newell Hwy in the early 90’s. I’ll never forget those lights and the fear in my father’s voice stays with me to this day.
I grew up just west of the Pillaga. There used to be a lot of brumbies in there that back in the 50’s & 60’s there were many failed attempts to yard some of them, as they were very hardy, & could potentially be turned into good stockhorses by putting a thoroughbred &/or stockhorse stallion over the mares. Having said that, if you want to watch someone scrubwalking & lighting fires, it’s a good channel to watch.
Hey miller been here for 6-5 years just letting u know thanks for making these it’s good to see people who love animals and the outdoors like me have a great day and amazing vid😊
I know an older bushman who lives up around Tenterfield deep in the bush and he came across a Yowie den and was chased away back to his house and tormented for weeks. It would come and circle around the house for a while making some really strange and scary noises at him, furious at the guy, then would leave. I heard a story of a man who accidentally encountered a little man by a creek in the top end. The little man was surprised, jumped, then his face went dark with rage, then he reached out his arm. The little man made a clenching and twisting motion with his hand, then the guy felt an excruciating pain like his nuts were being grabbed and twisted viciously. He collapsed in agony then looked up and the little man was gone. There are just too many stories I've heard either first hand or second hand that absolutely confirm they're real. Australia is an ancient place. Blackfellas all know they're real beings out there. Any of you white fellas who believe you're alone you're dreamin.'
Mate, I grew up in the Blue Mountains, and we seen a couple of Yowies over the years. They'd terrorize our dogs, and one to me smashed in the roof of our car. They're scary and very, very real! Our family were called crazy until the neighbours started seeing the bloody things as well. They all changed their tunes real quick. We ended up moving out to Warragamba, but I heard the new owners of our old place had quite a few encounters as well. Not many people last long in that house. Not from the house itself, but because of what's in the bush around it.
@@samanthafairweather9186 My cousin and I saw a white Yowie in the bush behind their house in Springwood when we were about 5-6 year old back around 1987-1988. They're definitely real, skeptics will always be skeptics until they get out in the bush and have their own experience. I've been lucky enough to see 2 of the elusive Tassie Tiger in Buchanan, a linx or bobcat, a panther, a lioness and an ostrich together out near Bucketty(our neighbour did 15 years in Prison for smuggling them in) and a Tiger up in the Olney state forest.
@@DelightfulKoala-gr8fc I've never seen a Platypus before, with your logic that means they must not exist either. if you want to see things in the bush you need to spend at least a few nights camping in the same spot deep in the state forests. just remember 10,000 people a year go missing in the Aussie Wilderness each year who aren't found.
wow miller! it’s amazing how you’re diving back into the wild like this. i mean, you’ve survived in the outback before, and you grew up in nature, so you totally know how to handle yourself! it’s like every time you go out there, it’s another adventure. can’t wait to see how you adapt with just your tools this time. what’s the first thing you did when you got into the wilderness? it’s so inspiring to watch you embrace what mother nature has to offer!❤
Fantastic guy to watch, first time I've seen his videos and I think they are great. I've never done what he does on his adventures but we used to catch fish pack them in river mud and put on hot coals, they cook great and scales and skin comes off with the dried mud. Fantastic memories for me. Keep it up miller, thanks
I am an archaeologist who did an Aboriginal heritage survey of the entire length of the Pilliga (from Coonabarabran to Narrabri). I walked the entirety (over 100km) of it with some local Aboriginal members, and they told me that the Pilliga is a very sacred area, and a place they believed a mysterious creature resided as well. Unknown to most, the Pilliga has hundreds and hundreds of Aboriginal sites, such as rock shelters, rock paintings, stone artefacts, grinding grooves, and scarred trees (many of which I recorded myself during the survey). During the survey, I encountered so much wildlife, and some very special an unique places. There is also the story of the Pilliga Princess, however, I never witnessed anything of this myself. It is awesome that you got to do this adventure Miller! Great to see a place I know very well being shown. Great video mate!
such a cool read and what an adventure you had the chance to be a part of - amazing - thanks for sharing - it is a real energy thing there and sometimes this comes with sacred spots - thanks again mate cheers Miller
Thoroughly enjoyed this although I'm a little perplexed as I have never heard the scary stories about the Piliga. I'm 64 and have lost count of the camps I've had around there. My only concern has been feral Pigs. Particularly Sows with slips. Sows with young tend to have a very "spicy" disposition. My most recent camp was only 3 months ago and the only peculiar thing was someone pulled over very near my camp, sat there for a minute and took off again without actually seeming to do anything. Humans can be strange Cattle :)
1. Why didn't you bring a tent or at least a swag? 2. why didn't you bring a sharpened clean steel blade? 3. I know there are YOWIE in the Southern Highlands south of Sydney. My mates brother and wife saw one and they've NEVER been the same. 4. My mate also had a close encounter of the third kind at the family Strawberry farm down there in the Southern Highlands. They work 24 hours a day picking their strawberries as they become ripe. Two 12 hour shifts. My mate and his brother were working the field in the middle of the night and a UFO came down very low and hovered above them. No where to hide in a strawberry field :))). Berrima old town down there is really haunted too. Just a thought. Thanks for this podcast of the Pilliga. Very interesting.
Miller, I spent 2 weeks there hunting pigs 30 odd years ago, staying at the huts at the old saw mill ppl I stayed with didn't venture out after they bring buckets in for number 1 just after dark all the dogs start up barking most of the night been told bout small hairy thing didn't see anything but we only hunted during the day
I think the Pillaga was an important part of the Cobb & Co route..such a beautiful area..I couldn't stay there alone..beautiful drone shots..love the Aussie landscapes, flora, and fauna..another amazing video..😊
I'm glad I found you and I get to watch you with my kids and learn about all of these things in Australia! Sending much love and good thoughts your way! Keep pushing and you'll go farther than you'll ever know!
Hey Miller it's me Vinny wanted to say really enjoy all your episodes you do an amazing job with the scenery also have you been fishing lately went to throw the net early this morning caught a couple mullet definitely going to smoke them Nancy and Stephanie cannot wait for the next episode me too buddy hope to hear from you soon buddy 👍💪💪
My best friend’s dad went missing and his vehicle was found crashed into a tree at one of the entrances to the forest. This was almost 10 years ago now and to this day he has never been found. My own dad used to be a truck driver when I was little and he used to drive through the forest on the highway and had so many creepy stories, one night his truck broke down while driving through it and he had to sleep in his cab until morning and whatever happened to him that night he refuses to talk about and from that night on he never ever drove through the forest again and refuses to even go near it to this day.
If you ever make it to the southeast of the US mate, I'd love to host you and bring you to the wildlife preserves and bushwhack, it's what I do best! Great channel, you're killing it. Amazing.
its crazy i only live like 30 minutes away from pilliga, so awesome to see you make a video on a place so close to me. especially in an area this rural that usually gets little to no attention. Im from gunnedah, love the videos
Miller your one crazy lad but that’s what I love about you and your videos you put your life on the line for all of us people to watch. I noticed at the start of the video in the newspaper article it said Yowies spotted in Euchareena near Molong which is actually not far away from where I’m from which is kinda cool but scary at the same time haha keep up the awesome work brother ❤❤❤
I remember watching your first videos when I was a kid it’s 3 am and I wasn’t expecting seeing your video this morning I’m glad to see you doing this still you encouraged me to be more in touch with nature!!
Oh, there's something in the Pilliga, I've heard old timers say That some won't even camp there, some never go that way And if you listen to their stories, they'll make your skin just crawl Some may offer their opinion and some never talk at all
Hi Miller mate great video as always the hairy man sound like the Yetis cant wait for part 2 its nice it will be your summer soon in Australia lovely hot weather. please stay safe on all your expeditions you do.
What an adventure! I was holding my breath through some of it and laughing in other parts. You're one amazing young man Miller, I know I've said it before but you are so brave! I don't know anyone that could do what you do in the places that you venture. Thank you for sharing with us. Have a wonderful night. 😊✌🏼
Great video, their Miller. You seem to do a pretty good job protecting the wildlife in our country, Miller. From 👍 William, Mount Gambier South Australia.
As a young boy, I lived near the easternmost extension of the Pilliga forest in a quaint little cypress milling village called Terry Hie Hie. The village is still there although the saw mill burnt down decades ago. Terry Hie Hie is a much revered place by Gamilaroi people. The words mean "meeting of two creeks". The two creeks are Berrigal Creek, an almost perennial stream flowing from Waa Gorge in the Nandewar Ranges and Wee Waa Creek (now renamed Tycannah Creek). This creek has its source near the Garrambeel Gap, a significant Aborignal pathway leading east towards the Horton River and the modern township of Bingara. In fact the Gamilaroi name "Wee Waa" means "place of the cooking fires" and it lends its name to the modern town of Wee Waa as well as to Wee Waa Creek. This creek with its abundant waters was a much traveled route for Aboriginal people and I imagine their cooking fores provided the name.. When I was a little older I lived near another forest, the Belanglo, a place with a well founded, sinister reputation thanks to Ivan Milat, an unimaginably evil serial killer.
Animals will water at dawn - find a water hole and rise before dawn and observe. Predators (YOWIE) will venture out to these places as they are opportunistic apex predators. I can feel the ancient land just through your video.
I have that exact same Bowie knife, inherited from a mate that decided to leave earth. Lucky on the dingo attack , don't underestimate the dingo , like you said if there were ten or so you would be in a struggle. A longish stick with a point helps as does a projectile weapon (slingshot) should discourage them but even a starter pisto etcl would work. Pigs can get narky too , again a stouter pointy stick would work. Love our bush .
Yowies,bigfoot or yeti all over the world there are recounts of 6-13 foot tall ape men, i wonder if the very very small population of gigantopithecus blacki still exist or did exist more recently than we thought.
Hi I haven’t watched a single thing yet but I just hit all the buttons and going to sit back and enjoy. I was born in Lithgow Blue Mountains. We just leave it there. We local know but also know for many many many times of new people not to say. Because they don’t believe you when you do. So be my guest. Let’s go.
Hey Miller, your adventures are always amazing and interesting to say the least but the look on your face while eating the carp says it all lol. And yes the Dingo's would have worried me a bit too. I am glad that you were safe and thank god for having trees around if your needed one. If I were in Australia I would have gone with you to the forest and take my chances as it would have been so awesome. That is one huge knife you have but better safe than sorry.
When you mentioned the first night of sleep was on the rocks, leaving you a bit sore...I've been there before, sleeping on rocks! I got a full nights solid sleep for about 7 hrs, but when waking I felt fine at first, but when I started to get up I was in so much pain I could barely move!!! haha I know how tough it can be! Since then I never go camping without at least a light sleeping bag or hammock! I always enjoy your ventures! Take Care! 🦧🦘
Mate!!! With mud cats I have a trick. It may work for your carp mud problem. Soak fillets in baking soda (two tablespoons of so) and water. (whatever it takes to float the fish.) Soak one hour. My fillets are perfect after that. Science or whatever. Who knew. Cheers Legend! Yer mate in Humboldt!
There was no big foot, but still a great adventure you had.You had enough on your plate dealing with those Dingoes let alone facing big foot ☺ very nice video to watch
And yes me Nancy and Stephanie really enjoyed this episode you did you really did a good job on the scenery and everything I learned so much already from you and I wanted to thank you friend😊😊
Awesome video mate. They are definitely out there. I had them look through the side window of my Jeep & slap the spare wheel at the back. You have guts going out there buddy. Thanks for really well done video 👍👍👍
Hey Miller it's me Vinny wowI really did enjoy this episode Nancy and Stephanie loved it you did really good with the scenery too hair in Florida been catching a lot of mangrove snapper and mullet how you been doing and stuff Nancy and Stephanie also told me to say hi to you hope to hear from you soon buddy 👍💪
After watching your adventures basically since you got eel slime in your hair, this is by far the best adventure you’ve taken me on. So much content, information, and epic visuals. I envy your knowledge and excitement to share with all of us. National Geographic needs you!
This video was very different to your others. It was very quiet with little activity. But nonetheless, it was a good one to watch. You are very daring in all your videos. It is nice to see your survival skills come into play regardless of where you find yourself. Awesome video dude. 👍 Hope to see you when you come to SA soon. 🇿🇦 Gonna be a good one for you.
Have you ever thought of doing a survival challenge with Greg Ovens maybe he could join you in Australia on one of youre adventures. Would be awesome to see and i bet it would blow up like crazy. Love your content bro really interesting and addictive 😂
Another great video Miller. You give me so many places to explore now l am retired. I have been watching your adventures for a long time now and along with the Tassie boys, have had my eyes open to this beautiful country l have the privilege of being born in. Looking forward to your next vid....😊
If you want to find or experience something like a dooligar or Junjudee then just tell them why u are there and that you would appreciate a visit. You should get a response. Respect to them goes a long way

I've never done what he does on his adventures but we used to catch fish pack them in river mud and put on hot coals, they cook great and scales and skin comes off with the dried mud. Fantastic memories for me. Keep it up miller, thanks
Glad you enjoyed it and welcome thanks for the mud tip cheers Miller
I am an archaeologist who did an Aboriginal heritage survey of the entire length of the Pilliga (from Coonabarabran to Narrabri). I walked the entirety (over 100km) of it with some local Aboriginal members, and they told me that the Pilliga is a very sacred area, and a place they believed a mysterious creature resided as well. Unknown to most, the Pilliga has hundreds and hundreds of Aboriginal sites, such as rock shelters, rock paintings, stone artefacts, grinding grooves, and scarred trees (many of which I recorded myself during the survey). During the survey, I encountered so much wildlife, and some very special an unique places. There is also the story of the Pilliga Princess, however, I never witnessed anything of this myself. It is awesome that you got to do this adventure Miller! Great to see a place I know very well being shown. Great video mate!
such a cool read and what an adventure you had the chance to be a part of - amazing - thanks for sharing - it is a real energy thing there and sometimes this comes with sacred spots - thanks again mate cheers Miller
bro you are the best wild life youtuber dont forget that
haha you are great to have around thanks mate
I remember when you were young its been a privilege watching you grow older and your channel grow ❤
Thoroughly enjoyed this although I'm a little perplexed as I have never heard the scary stories about the Piliga. I'm 64 and have lost count of the camps I've had around there. My only concern has been feral Pigs. Particularly Sows with slips. Sows with young tend to have a very "spicy" disposition. My most recent camp was only 3 months ago and the only peculiar thing was someone pulled over very near my camp, sat there for a minute and took off again without actually seeming to do anything. Humans can be strange Cattle :)
1. Why didn't you bring a tent or at least a swag? 2. why didn't you bring a sharpened clean steel blade? 3. I know there are YOWIE in the Southern Highlands south of Sydney. My mates brother and wife saw one and they've NEVER been the same. 4. My mate also had a close encounter of the third kind at the family Strawberry farm down there in the Southern Highlands. They work 24 hours a day picking their strawberries as they become ripe. Two 12 hour shifts. My mate and his brother were working the field in the middle of the night and a UFO came down very low and hovered above them. No where to hide in a strawberry field :))). Berrima old town down there is really haunted too. Just a thought. Thanks for this podcast of the Pilliga. Very interesting.
Im in Bowral and still waiting to see a ufo, don't know about berrima but I've heard storys of ufos being truther out of that area
Miller, I spent 2 weeks there hunting pigs 30 odd years ago, staying at the huts at the old saw mill ppl I stayed with didn't venture out after they bring buckets in for number 1 just after dark all the dogs start up barking most of the night been told bout small hairy thing didn't see anything but we only hunted during the day
You are crazy sleeping on the ground in the middle of nowhere I would not sleep 😂😂 love watching ya still Miller, really inspiring ❤
I think the Pillaga was an important part of the Cobb & Co route..such a beautiful area..I couldn't stay there alone..beautiful drone shots..love the Aussie landscapes, flora, and fauna..another amazing video..😊
Yes the inland postal tracks when the waters were flowing would have been an amazing thing to see
@MillerWilson most definately..such an important part of our history..
I'm glad I found you and I get to watch you with my kids and learn about all of these things in Australia! Sending much love and good thoughts your way! Keep pushing and you'll go farther than you'll ever know!
Such a delightful, adorable young man!
Hey Miller it's me Vinny wanted to say really enjoy all your episodes you do an amazing job with the scenery also have you been fishing lately went to throw the net early this morning caught a couple mullet definitely going to smoke them Nancy and Stephanie cannot wait for the next episode me too buddy hope to hear from you soon buddy 👍💪💪
Nothing is better than being out in nature and meeting wild animals 🐾🦋🦩🪸🐸🐍🐊🦜
Absolutely 😊❤
My best friend’s dad went missing and his vehicle was found crashed into a tree at one of the entrances to the forest. This was almost 10 years ago now and to this day he has never been found. My own dad used to be a truck driver when I was little and he used to drive through the forest on the highway and had so many creepy stories, one night his truck broke down while driving through it and he had to sleep in his cab until morning and whatever happened to him that night he refuses to talk about and from that night on he never ever drove through the forest again and refuses to even go near it to this day.
If you ever make it to the southeast of the US mate, I'd love to host you and bring you to the wildlife preserves and bushwhack, it's what I do best! Great channel, you're killing it. Amazing.
Wow iv never heard of this place! Cool vid miller and I am excited for your future vids coming!
Congrats Mate! But not needing to push you beyond limits. We want u back and alive to keep watching cracking adventures. God bless you!
its crazy i only live like 30 minutes away from pilliga, so awesome to see you make a video on a place so close to me. especially in an area this rural that usually gets little to no attention.
Im from gunnedah, love the videos
Hey man love your work, you should come to Victoria and hunt down these apparent black panther sightings!
Early next year I’ll be doing a black panther expedition !!
The look on your face while you were eating that carp..Gold!
Miller your one crazy lad but that’s what I love about you and your videos you put your life on the line for all of us people to watch.
I noticed at the start of the video in the newspaper article it said Yowies spotted in Euchareena near Molong which is actually not far away from where I’m from which is kinda cool but scary at the same time haha keep up the awesome work brother ❤❤❤
FIRST TIME I SAW A VIDEO OF YOU. LOVE IT. LOVE FROM SOUTH AFRICA.❤❤
I remember watching your first videos when I was a kid it’s 3 am and I wasn’t expecting seeing your video this morning I’m glad to see you doing this still you encouraged me to be more in touch with nature!!
Oh, there's something in the Pilliga, I've heard old timers say
That some won't even camp there, some never go that way
And if you listen to their stories, they'll make your skin just crawl
Some may offer their opinion and some never talk at all
this is like your best video ever. loved it. cant wait for part 2
Hi Miller mate great video as always the hairy man sound like the Yetis cant wait for part 2 its nice it will be your summer soon in Australia lovely hot weather. please stay safe on all your expeditions you do.
You need to come to America and explore! Especially the Appalachian mountains.
What an adventure! I was holding my breath through some of it and laughing in other parts. You're one amazing young man Miller, I know I've said it before but you are so brave! I don't know anyone that could do what you do in the places that you venture. Thank you for sharing with us. Have a wonderful night. 😊✌🏼
lol the quick cuts to you chasing goats are amazing XD keep those things on their toes!
Boy' I'm already older and praying that God keeps YOU safe on your adventures and exploration...!
You won my respect and my subscription!! Very cool stuff man!
Awesome, thank you!
Did I love the goat scenes?
Yes
Did they make me cough because I'm sick and laughing makes me cough right now?
Yes
Was it worth it?
Absolutely! ^-^
haha like a comedy skit - thanks mate
I love staying up till 2am for this upload :)
I appreciate the dedication Jarrett thanks mate
You've got to be my favourite youtuber. Especially how you respond to every comment, not many youtubers do that. Great video as always!
Great video, their Miller.
You seem to do a pretty good job protecting the wildlife in our country, Miller.
From 👍 William, Mount Gambier South Australia.
As a young boy, I lived near the easternmost extension of the Pilliga forest in a quaint little cypress milling village called Terry Hie Hie. The village is still there although the saw mill burnt down decades ago. Terry Hie Hie is a much revered place by Gamilaroi people. The words mean "meeting of two creeks". The two creeks are Berrigal Creek, an almost perennial stream flowing from Waa Gorge in the Nandewar Ranges and Wee Waa Creek (now renamed Tycannah Creek). This creek has its source near the Garrambeel Gap, a significant Aborignal pathway leading east towards the Horton River and the modern township of Bingara.
In fact the Gamilaroi name "Wee Waa" means "place of the cooking fires" and it lends its name to the modern town of Wee Waa as well as to Wee Waa Creek. This creek with its abundant waters was a much traveled route for Aboriginal people and I imagine their cooking fores provided the name..
When I was a little older I lived near another forest, the Belanglo, a place with a well founded, sinister reputation thanks to Ivan Milat, an unimaginably evil serial killer.
Animals will water at dawn - find a water hole and rise before dawn and observe. Predators (YOWIE) will venture out to these places as they are opportunistic apex predators. I can feel the ancient land just through your video.
I look forward to Part 2!
I have that exact same Bowie knife, inherited from a mate that decided to leave earth.
Lucky on the dingo attack , don't underestimate the dingo , like you said if there were ten or so you would be in a struggle.
A longish stick with a point helps as does a projectile weapon (slingshot) should discourage them but even a starter pisto etcl would work.
Pigs can get narky too , again a stouter pointy stick would work.
Love our bush .
Great work as always Miller. Keep it up!
Thanks as always , will do!
Another awesome video Miller looking forward to watching your next one
Nowhere quite like Australia ~ thanks for sharing your adventures in the Pilliga ~ 😊
If you want a scary forest, try Belanglo State forest... That place is Scary fn Mary
Yowies,bigfoot or yeti all over the world there are recounts of 6-13 foot tall ape men, i wonder if the very very small population of gigantopithecus blacki still exist or did exist more recently than we thought.
Hi I haven’t watched a single thing yet but I just hit all the buttons and going to sit back and enjoy. I was born in Lithgow Blue Mountains. We just leave it there. We local know but also know for many many many times of new people not to say. Because they don’t believe you when you do. So be my guest. Let’s go.
I absolutely loved it and the story about the dingos ❤
Hey Miller, your adventures are always amazing and interesting to say the least but the look on your face while eating the carp says it all lol. And yes the Dingo's would have worried me a bit too. I am glad that you were safe and thank god for having trees around if your needed one. If I were in Australia I would have gone with you to the forest and take my chances as it would have been so awesome. That is one huge knife you have but better safe than sorry.
The pilliga princess lol god love her
That’s hardcore man. Freezing at night. Great stuff.
When you mentioned the first night of sleep was on the rocks, leaving you a bit sore...I've been there before, sleeping on rocks! I got a full nights solid sleep for about 7 hrs, but when waking I felt fine at first, but when I started to get up I was in so much pain I could barely move!!! haha I know how tough it can be! Since then I never go camping without at least a light sleeping bag or hammock! I always enjoy your ventures!
Take Care! 🦧🦘
Mate!!! With mud cats I have a trick. It may work for your carp mud problem. Soak fillets in baking soda (two tablespoons of so) and water. (whatever it takes to float the fish.) Soak one hour. My fillets are perfect after that. Science or whatever. Who knew. Cheers Legend! Yer mate in Humboldt!
There was no big foot, but still a great adventure you had.You had enough on your plate dealing with those Dingoes let alone facing big foot ☺ very nice video to watch
Love your content and humour
There is something in the Pilliga mate on the banks of Tooley Creek 🎵🎶🎵
It's wonderful how you will go to the place less traveled and make yourself one with nature. 🌏 On to the next

You are a young survivalist. Cool
I really like the way you're living, bro😊
After watching your adventures basically since you got eel slime in your hair, this is by far the best adventure you’ve taken me on. So much content, information, and epic visuals. I envy your knowledge and excitement to share with all of us. National Geographic needs you!
Wow, thank you - I am really enjoying the travel and improving my vids ! thanks again mate
This video was very different to your others. It was very quiet with little activity. But nonetheless, it was a good one to watch. You are very daring in all your videos. It is nice to see your survival skills come into play regardless of where you find yourself. Awesome video dude. 👍 Hope to see you when you come to SA soon. 🇿🇦 Gonna be a good one for you.
We love camping in the Pilliga.
- *I've been to dudly town, that is haunted af in CT, USA* . Great video. 👍🏽
Your joke on how to prep Carp. Bloody brillaintly funny. Tastes like mud ! Keep up the great work from the uk
“Idk if I can waste anymore energy trying to catch wild goats”
*tries to catch wild goats*

Have you ever thought of doing a survival challenge with Greg Ovens maybe he could join you in Australia on one of youre adventures. Would be awesome to see and i bet it would blow up like crazy. Love your content bro really interesting and addictive 😂
Another great video Miller. You give me so many places to explore now l am retired. I have been watching your adventures for a long time now and along with the Tassie boys, have had my eyes open to this beautiful country l have the privilege of being born in. Looking forward to your next vid....😊
If you want to find or experience something like a dooligar or Junjudee then just tell them why u are there and that you would appreciate a visit.
You should get a response.
Respect to them goes a long way
I like the joke about eating the carp:)
Mate a lot of Aussies go to the Pilliga for holidays and camping, nothing to fear about it, it's a great place to escape TH-cam and relax
yes definitely beautiful and a great spot - just heard so many old stories that I thought I would delve into it a little - great to hear every bodies thoughts
Great work MILLER ... stay safe mate... 🙏 👍hey get yourself a LIFESTRAW WATER FILTER brother 👍 👌

thanks so much for watching mate
