In a statement, New South Wales Police outlined the extensive search efforts: “A command post was established at the Kiandra Courthouse, on the Snowy Mountains Highway, Kiandra, and a search was launched.” The operation involved the Monaro Police District, Mounted and Dog Units, State Emergency Services (SES), National Parks and Wildlife Service, Rural Fire Service, and a Surf Life Saving Helicopter. Local residents also volunteered in the search.

Snakebite

After days of navigating the challenging bushland, the woman was located around 4:50 p.m. local time Sunday by a National Parks and Wildlife officer on the Nungar Creek Trail near Kiandra. NSW Ambulance paramedics treated her at the scene for exposure and what is believed to be a snakebite. She was later transported to Cooma District Hospital, where she is reportedly in stable condition.

It remains unclear whether the woman was hiking alone or became separated from a group. New South Wales Police expressed gratitude to all who aided in the search, including volunteers and the media, for their support.
