A 48-year-old photographer named Lovisa Sjoberg, who is affectionately known as Kiki, was recently found in the NSW Snowy Mountains after being missing for a week. It was a relief for everyone involved in the widespread search, as she was found suffering from exposure and a suspected snake bite. The police believe that the bite may have been from a copperhead snake.
Prior to being discovered yesterday afternoon, it was believed that Sjoberg was last seen on October 15 and her last communication was on October 8. However, it wasn't until she failed to return a hire car, a Mitsubishi Outlander, by October 21 that alarms were raised. The Outlander, which she was seen driving in the Kosciuszko National Park on October 15, was eventually found at Kiandra on October 21. The NSW Police, along with the State Emergency Service, the Rural Fire Service, and National Parks and Wildlife, joined forces with local volunteers to search the rugged terrain.
Concerns for Sjoberg's well-being were heightened due to her uncharacteristic disappearance and the length of time she had been missing. In an effort to help find her, hundreds of people joined Facebook groups to organize searches and gather information. It was a true community effort.
Finally, at around 4:50 pm yesterday, Sjoberg was found by a National Parks and Wildlife Service officer on the Nungar Creek Trail at Kiandra. She was immediately treated by paramedics for exposure and what was suspected to be a snake bite. Sjoberg is currently recovering in Cooma District Hospital and is said to be in stable condition.
The police expressed their gratitude to everyone who was involved in the search for Sjoberg. It was a collective effort that resulted in her being found and receiving the necessary medical attention. It was a happy ending to what could have been a tragic situation.
