She fell about eight meters while hiking with her partner near Lake Wells, prompting a major multi-agency rescue operation that lasted over 12 hours. Despite being injured, her condition was not life-threatening, and her partner’s first aid efforts were crucial before help arrived. The incident highlighted the importance of preparation for outdoor activities in remote areas.
