OUTBACK Magazine | OUTBACK 164
From working on cattle stations to childminding in remote locations and experiencing life in the military, many of Australia’s school leavers are heading bush for a formative 12-month period, before settling down to study or work. In issue 164 of OUTBACK we take a deep dive into the growing phenomenon that is the gap year, including the benefits and the potential pitfalls. It’s essential reading for anyone considering a gap year. Other highlights of the issue include the growing use of artificial intelligence in rural and remote Australia; the Murray river cropping, cattle and racehorse property Quat Quatta; a gritty insider’s view of country footy by photographer Cory White; 2025 Rural Woman of the Year, nurse and shearer Carol Mudford; and an historical exploration of the last days of legendary western writer Zane Grey in Australia.
