Caro Ryan talks to Joyce, who was bitten by a snake on Mt Solitary. Luckily Joyce was walking with a group and had the Emergency+ app on her phone. That meant she was flying out in a helicopter within an hour. This podcast illustrates why walking in a group, even in the age of helicopters and mobile phones, is so important. However, if she had been wearing long, loose-fitting trousers, the snake probably would have missed (it bites the cloth, not you).
