Clarry Shadforth's home station of Seven Emu has been recently devastated by Cyclone Trevor but he still has cattle to transport to the saleyards.
Braving the washed away roads, the operation goes belly up when his engine stalls and they're left with a rolled truck, no cattle and no outside help. #OutbackRinger

Finally, a yard full of bulls.
Ah, good to get something in the yard, ay?
But fallen trees and damaged roads caused by Cyclone Trevor have made Seven Emu a very dangerous place to use vehicles. At any other place, trucking cattle between holding yards is a straightforward task.
Yeah, we loading now to take back to the base yard. That'll be just about it, hey?
Today however, the truck must cross a creek on a road which is all but washed away. The first load makes it across successfully. But two more loads remain.
I think that's the lot, ay? Well I'll get going, ay? So I can get across that crossing.
In near darkness, Clarry feels his way down into the creek bed.
I reckon it's still going to be heavy trying to climb with them bull, ay?
Yeah.
