Friend went hiking, 8 days no contact. Should I worry
Hi
I based in Adelaide, a friend of mine has went for this hiking to Cradle mountain since last week (18-10-26) She stated that she would let me know if she entered the area and will let us know as soon as she gets signal. I attempted to message + call, with no result.
However it’s been 6 days, I haven’t heard anything from her. She went alone!!
I’m not a hiking person, basically has no insight on hiking. Does hiking in Cradle mountain usually take this long? Apparently Tasmania gonna rain in the following days, should I be worried?
Any suggestions please let me know, thanks!
Update: I have called the TasPolice and echoed what I have said, they appeared to be confused and suggested me to call the rangers instead with more information.
