English this time!

a group goes walking in the mountains and not until they arrive back at their hotel do they realise they are 1 person short !

emergency services alerted,searched til dark-no luck.

found next morning safe & well despite the cold -only wearing t-shirt & shorts

how do you not miss a member of your group?

If they were walking in single file, he could have been the last person.

That would explain it.

2 more! we'll be running out of tourists at this rate!

35 yr old German-what else! broke her leg attempting canyoning today

in a separate incident another one (same nationality) walking in the mountains ,left the correct pathway and went off on his own ,has fallen 50ft into a ravine,has a head injury ,still trying to extract him-very difficult terrain.

do they all think they are bloody invincible,feel sorry for the volunteer rescue teams
