In 2001, one of the worlds most accomplished climbers and adventurers, Jon Muir, began a 2500 kilometre odyssey to cross Australia from the south to the north coast on foot.

Walking from Port Augusta at the top of Spencer Gulf on the South Australian coast to Burketown on the Gulf of Carpentaria, this was Muir's fourth attempt to undertake this odyssey and Seraphine's second. Jon took only a loaded wheeled cart which he pulled behind him, containing his camping gear, basic food, a gun, maps and a compass and his camera and sound recording. For the next 128 days Jon and his dog Seraphine survived entirely off the land – hunting and gathering along the way. Jon was taxed to the limit physically and emotionally.

Often close to despair, he drew on his instinct for survival, his deep understanding of the land and his remarkable inner strength.
