I reckon we get one and make a digital copy of it. If it's out of print by Hema than that shouldn't upset anyone would it.
Hi there. I have both the standard Hema map and the Bush Tucker Man map and they are identical except for a few interesting notes here and there. From a travelling or navigating point of view one is no better than the other. Most of the things on the Bush Tucker map are common knowledge things or places put there to make it easier to find.
I live in north Qld and there were still a few copies of the Bush Tucker version for sale locally. I will see if I can track a few down and report back on my success if anyone is interested.
Cheers, Rick.
I thought there was a version that had pics/details of Bush tucker on the back?
Yes, that's the one. But do you REALLY wan't to eat bush tucker when you have a fridge or esky full of perfectly good food. What they say about bush tucker is true "It tastes like s---, but you can eat it". Bush tucker for us white fellas is about eating to survive and if you know where and how to find it you would only be eating it because you had absolutely nothing else. I have sampled quite a variety of bush tucker up here and find almost all of it very hard to stomach. I'm not talking about wildlife, I'm talking about seeds, plants,, flowers, insects, grubs, leaves and grasses, berries, tubers and quite a bit more. Bush Tucker is great to keep you alive in an emergency but most of us travel in groups these days and use high tech communication equipment as well as GPS locators etc. Les Hiddins probably knows more about bush tucker than most of or indigenous people. I work with a very large number of aboriginal people and most wouldn't be capable of surviving on their own in the bush today.
can anyone scan it, even in multiple A4s they could be put together as a pdf or put on ipad
I've got one, I'll have to check which version.
