Big Mob Droving THE CAMP

STOCK ROUTE
There are clear boundary lines at camp between the cattle and us.
The small V space in a pie chart is the place to eat and sleep and recharge before the next days dawn move on. The outer forward space is where 1200 head of cattle bed down for the night by circling drovers. Some hum and sing in the twilight of dusk and the fall of dark night.
Sheets of roofing tin shelter the fire, the cooks kitchen truck top is a working bricolage of essentials to keep the crew happy and fed.
