81 year old Kyeong Soon Kim was found in relatively good health and her family has been notified.
Nanaimo RCMP say Kim was found this morning sitting roadside near the entrance to the Fish and Game Club on Nanaimo Lakes Road.
Police believe she walked throughout the evening, covering a distance of approximately 4kms.
She has been taken to local hospital for a general assessment but overall she appears to have weathered the elements and is expected to make a full recovery from her ordeal.
Original Post:
An extensive search is underway for an 81 year old woman who went missing at Westwood Lake in Nanaimo Friday afternoon.
Kyeong Soon Kim only speaks Korean and was reported missing by her family Friday night after she failed to return from a walk to the lake in search of ferns. She is not familiar with the area as she recently arrived in Canada to visit with family.
Nanaimo Search And Rescue searched throughout the evening and night without success. RCMP Air Services joined the search Saturday.
