Hadi Nazari, a 23-year-old man, went missing in the Snowy Mountains near Kosciuszko National Park while hiking with friends on December 26. Initially, his friends notified police after he failed to return to their campsite, prompting an intensive search.

    1. He called out to them and disclosed who he was, and [said] that he'd been lost in the bush.
    2. He's been reunited with his family, who are very, very happy to have him back.
    3. The circumstances we believe at the moment are that he called out to some hikers who were in the area. He told them that he'd been lost in the bush and was thirsty.
    1. This is an incredible outcome – after 13 long days he has been located. We want to thank our emergency services partner agencies, volunteers and members of the public for their assistance.
    2. We've had a chat with Hadi, and he said he's been pretty much just up walking from morning till night.
    3. There are some creeks up there and he said he's been finding water where he could and foraging for food where he could, in terms of berries. At one point, he said he found a couple of muesli bars in a hut, but other than that — 14 days and that's very little food.
