Karly joins Kade to recount her fascinating and unnerving encounters on the Queensland Gemfields back in August 2019. Karly shares details about their trip, where they had unusual experiences of boulders thrown, trees being pushed, and strange noises. Initially overlooking these signs, Karly and her husband later reflected on their lack of respect for their surroundings and realised they may have provoked these aggressive disturbances, which their friend convinced them were signs of the infamous Yowie, a creature from Aboriginal folklore. Carly discusses how these experiences have influenced her understanding of the land and the lessons she’s learned for future camping trips.
