Swan River Caveman

I'd first heard about a man living in a cave overlooking the Swan River around five years before visiting the site in December 2022. From what I remember, the biggest thing that seemed to piss people off was that he was enjoying million-dollar river views without paying a cent.

When I eventually visited the cave, I found a tent surrounded by an extraordinary amount of rubbish. Clothing, food packaging, empty bottles, discarded electronics, car batteries and all sorts of other crap were scattered across the floor.

Whether the person living there was responsible for all of it is another question but the condition of the cave was disgraceful. Unfortunately, it's not unusual to find places like this littered with rubbish that nobody seems particularly interested in cleaning up.

And judging by the amount left behind, it certainly wasn't going to be a five-minute job.
