Searching for missing person in mountains was success and fast last night. Glad I stick on this part of plan to check from 水社主峰 towards 大尖山 (Formosa Trail course). I was on this connection since 2016, it is very deep forest, bit scary during the day, in night not better :]
I did not see any signs/steps, so I doubt she can be there, but stick on plan to go ahead (and later return). And here she was, happy, healthy, but cold in deep forest and without light and just with light cloth.
Provide Emergency blanket, jacket, food, water, spare headlamp and lady was able to continue in direction to 13th kilometer of forest road (just hike 2km instead go back 10km) where Eva sent 4WD car by instruction.
This time was happy ending and got lot experiences.
