In the Blue Mountains, west of Sydney, Brandon and Kayne start this episode climbing some of the most spectacular cliffs in the country!

It’s not easy work, with the boys learning to shear sheep, test cows for pregnancy and more. They take some time to meet the local Gundugurra people, before Justin the Jackaroo puts them through their paces on the farm.
