Free Camping Tassies WILD West Coast Where 7 convicts ate each other to survive

Tasmania's wild west coast. The most rugged, untouched country this nation's got — and 200 years ago, it swallowed eight convicts whole. Only one walked back out. His name was Alexander Pearce. To survive the bush, the rivers and the cold, he did the unthinkable — and his story has haunted this coast ever since. 👇 Drop it below: 📍 The Best Pub in Tassie: ____ Chapters: 00:00 Intro 00:54 The Story of Alexander Pearce 02:05 Our Mission 02:30 The Pieman Heads Track 05:14 Beach Recovery 08:34 History of Sarah Island 09:24 Granville Harbour Camp 11:31 Cooking Scene 16:57 Camp Morning 18:19 On the road to Pieman River 20:54 Fatman Barge 21:55 Waratah Pub & Falls 23:39 Escape and First Victim 25:52 Reece Dam Camp 27:28 Camp Story 28:58 Exploring Reece Dam 32:45 Bianca and Jordan Depart 33:29 West Coast Ranges 34:51 Final Push 36:41 Cannibal Origins 40:09 Drive to Queenstown and Empire Hotel Our Crew: Pete from Ultimate 9: https://www.ultimate9.co/au/ 🔧 Our Gear: Off-road hybrid caravans & camper trailers: https://www.lifestylecampers.com.au/ Wine: https://www.offtrackwines.com.au/ Suspension: https://www.pedders.com.au/ Tray & Canopy: https://www.mitsalloy.com.au Graham's UHF/Comms: https://uniden.com.au/ Bash Plates: https://www.customoffroad.com.au/ Exhausts: https://pacemaker.com.au/ Solar & 12v: https://enerdrive.com.au/ Graham's Fridge: https://www.dometic.com/en-au/outdoor Off-Road Accessories: https://offroadanimal.com.au/ Mazda BT-50: https://www.mazda.com.au/cars/new-bt-50/ Towing Accessories: https://www.clearviewaccessories.com.au/ XBAR Recovery: https://x-bar.com.au/ 📱 Follow us: Instagram @4wd247 Facebook @4wd247 TikTok @4wd247 Shaun, Graham, Jock & Jesse — formerly with 4WD Action — have been delivering Australia's best off-road content for 20+ years.
