The 53-year-old tourist apparently "took a wrong turn'' on the Big Hill Trail yesterday, and was unable to locate the track before nightfall, Senior Sergeant Paula Enoka, of Queenstown, said. However, the woman found the track this morning, and while walking back to Arrowtown about 8.15am, met another walker, who called police. The woman, who has been staying in Wanaka, was "fine and healthy'', and would meet police later today for a debrief.
