The vehicle had been abandoned for a month since Wilga was found in remote bushland.

Kim Graham, a Bonnie Rock farmer who participated in the search for the missing backpacker, spoke to Perth Today host Simon Beaumont about the community’s decision to recover the vehicle.

“It’s going to be tough terrain to even retrieve and probably going to cost more than it’s even worth, to be honest, for the authorities to do it, and you know for us guys to be able to help out, it’s the least we can do, that’s what community does,” he said.”
